Editorial: Gas deregulation debate and its stakes
The editorial argues deregulating natural gas prices favored producers and faced a filibuster by price ceiling critics. It cites Sen. Abourezk and Sen. Metzenbaum questioning production gains after price hikes, warns of higher costs for homeowners and industry, and estimates a cumulative $160 billion by 1990. It calls for a modest 5 to 6 percent yearly increase as a middle ground.
