Thomas Friedman’s most recent New York Times column, “Seeds for a Geo-Green Party,” not only mentions Unity08, but outlines his ideal third party which he calls the “Geo-Greens.” Click here to read the full column (subscriber access only) or the summary in the Unity08 blog.
Friedman's Geo-Greens would call for a gasoline tax to encourage the development of energy alternatives and to fund programs such as Social Security and clean mass transit. He goes on to explain that reducing our dependence on foreign oil would have economic, environmental and geo-political benefits.
What do you think of Friedman's ideas?
