 Planning Maine's energy future - Maine Policy Review - Margaret Chase Smith Center for Public Policy
As we will highlight, these policies have not been benign, and continue to shape the energy landscape in Maine, often in ways not envisioned by their champions and in certain instances to the detriment of the economic health of the state.
Other policies of that time, particularly the regulation of oil and natural gas wellhead prices, not only failed, but achieved the opposite of their intended effect by intensifying the price and supply disruptions they were supposed to mitigate.
Moreover, an examination of energy policies from prior decades makes it abundantly clear that we cannot always (or even frequently) foretell with any accuracy whether the assumptions and predictions on which our policies are based are correct, whether the policies will act as anticipated, or whether they may produce unintended and unwanted consequences.

 washingtonpost.com: President Signals No Major Shift In Foreign Policy
President Bush faces an array of difficult foreign policy issues in his second term, but he appears unlikely to change the overall direction of an assertive diplomacy that has riled some key allies and led to rising anti-Americanism around the globe, according to administration officials and outside experts.
With the election behind them, officials hope policy toward Iraq will not be as politicized, and that nations that have withheld assistance in the hope that Bush would lose will rethink their position.
Richard Haass, the State Department's director of policy planning in the first two years of Bush's current term, said that rarely has a president faced such a challenging period in foreign policy.
