| Subject: The Command Economy Continues: Obama orders higher fuel standards for larger U.S. trucks Tue Feb 18, 2014 5:59 pm | |
| President Barack Obama on Tuesday directed federal agencies to develop higher fuel standards for medium-sized and heavy trucks, another step in his efforts to slash oil consumption and carbon emissions blamed for global warming.
Obama made the announcement in Upper Marlboro, Maryland, about 20 miles (32 km) from Washington, at a distribution center for Safeway grocery stores, next to a trucking rig that had been redesigned to increase fuel economy.
"Everybody who says you can't grow the economy while bringing down pollution, it's turned out they've been wrong," Obama said.
