Forest for the trees?? I've thought this of liberals for a long time.

QUOTE (Glad I Left @ Jan. 27 2014,2:03 pm)
QUOTE Solyndra (et al) is the wave of the future! Didn't we already to Solyndra? So fixated on them now aren't you. I wonder how they compare to what the oil industry has cost us? Peanuts. Closed eyes I say. This 'shortage' is just another showing of how we are helpless against suppliers of fuel. We are at their mercy once again. Yet there are still those that are completely against alternative energy. My view is, if you are against the progress of something that could be very beneficial to all, you either have something to lose by it personally or just down right stubborn.

I will speak for myself on this one, I am NOT against alternative fuel sources. In fact I encourage and welcome them. What I AM against is subsidizing something so heavily only to make it competitive with other proven sources. And don't get me started on the obvious political/monetary favors (both ways) played out by this administration to the providers of these alternative sources. I'm not saying Bush Inc. isn't guilty of the same type of stuff in regards to other things, but this isn't about Bush, he was a POS too, but his time is over.

...and it all comes back to money and power. You don't think the oil industry has got the power in their pockets? They have convinced people that they are the only way to go.

If technology is to advance it's going to have to happen in the private sector.

Such as NASA? The energy companies have been fighting instead of embracing alternative energy. Why? Probably because it could possibly become something out of their control. Control is very important to people with power and money.
