Recently Tom Steyer announced that he was running for President as a Democrat. The millionaire is running on a ‘5 Rights’ agenda. According to The Washington Times<\/a>, the ‘5 Rights’ are:\u00a0 \u201cunencumbered access to voting, clean air and water, education, a living wage and healthcare to be constitutionally protected for every American.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tom Steyer portrays himself as an environmentalist who opposes the use of coal for energy, but his history tells another story.<\/p>\n

Yesterday Breitbart<\/a> posted the following:<\/p>\n

Despite marketing himself as an \u201cenvironmental justice\u201d advocate combating \u201cclimate change,\u201d billionaire Democrat presidential candidate Tom Steyer oversaw the funding of coal plants in Australia, China, and Indonesia during his tenure as CEO of hedge fund Farallon Capital Management.<\/h2>\n

Steyer also bought and sold coal stocks during the Obama administration\u2019s \u201cwar on coal,\u201d explained<\/a> Peter Schweizer,\u00a0president of the Government Accountability Institute and senior contributor at Breitbart News, in episode four of the Drill Down<\/em>.<\/strong><\/p>\n

There is nothing wrong with funding coal plants, but the hypocrisy is another example of the ‘rules for thee, but not for me’ attitude held by so many in the political class.<\/p>\n

The article concludes:<\/p>\n

Steyer also circumvented\u00a0conflict-of-interest regulations prohibiting American advisers from investing in countries they were assisting following the collapse of the Soviet Union and subsequent privatization of Russian industries. Larry Summers, former president of Harvard University and economics adviser to the Obama administration, was tasked with overseeing Russian industries\u2019 presumed shift towards free market operations. Steyer worked with Summers\u2019 wife, possibly gleaning insider information upon which to make investment decisions.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a classic maneuver of crony capitalism,\u201d said Schweizer of Steyer\u2019s evasion of the aforementioned conflict-of-interest regulations.<\/strong><\/p>\n
