Van Jones, the "green jobs" czar has resigned. But, leftists can take heart because there are plenty of Marxists and other folks with weird ideas left among Obama's czars. In fact, Jones's agenda is pretty much just standard black racist Marxist stuff rather than weird stuff. As far as I am aware he didn't entertain thoughts of mass sterilization or forced abortions like Science Adviser Holdren, or allowing lawsuits to be brought on behalf of animals like Cass Sunstein. Regarding green jobs, that is probably one czar we don't need since green jobs are so bad for the economy since they amount to a political allocation of resources that history shows is always sub-optimal. The history of green jobs in Europe is not promising. As any competent analysis would predict, green jobs are not economical and green power will always cost more than conventional sources at current commodity cost levels. Spain has aggressively pursued green energy, and it hasn't worked out well, though they won't admit that officially. George Will recently commented on this.
