Are they just incapable of looking any further ahead than the next business quarter or political term? So other countries have some magical technology they are'nt telling us about? Because everywhere I have seen.... these 'magical technologies' tried... they fail miserably to beat out fossil fuels. They use a tremendous amount money to implement for a fraction of other technologies, with minimal results. Meanwhile we are finding new ways to burn fossil fuels more efficiently and cleaner. The greenie wiener bullshit is is killing us as a country.  If he cant do it one way.... he will find another way to kill America.

| The third green company hits the skids. Drip, Drip, Drip: Yet Another Green Energy Stimulus Recipient Hits the Skids (the third this week!) Earlier this week, Stimulus beneficiary Evergreen Energy bit the dust. Then, Ener1, a manufacturer of batteries for electric vehicles and recipient of Stimulus largesse, filed for bankruptcy. And today, the Las Vegas Sun reports that Amonix, Inc., a manufacturer of solar panels that received $5.9 million from the Porkulus, will cut two-thirds of its workforce, about 200 employees, only seven months after opening a factory in Nevada. YAAYYYYY! |

How many countries have failed at communism and YET there are leftists who claim it just hasn't been tried "with the right people in charge." It doesn't matter the "right people" have never existed, they keep hoping. Nuances, don't ya know?

"Oh, and this will bring energy to 30,000 homes!" Goody! There are only 300 MILLION people in the country. Yeah, that will get us off fossil fuels. I hate to break it to you but guess what those "wind turbines" run on when there isn't any wind? They demand LOTS OF OIL http://www.kluberfood.com/pdfs/Lubep...07_Siebert.pdf 14000 Abandoned Wind Turbines In The USA « Tory Aardvark You ever see those things spinning on a windless day? Guess how that happens, WITH ELECTRICITY. And Electricity is created with oil. It's done for one reason. COSMETICS. To make these things look as if they are working when they aren't.

Are they just incapable of looking any further ahead than the next business quarter or political term? Forcing the issue with non viable products is the ultimate in stupidity. IF an energy is commericially viable, it will come to the market. As much as liberals hate fossil fuels, they forget that is what saved the whales from being hunted to complete extinction. It was a much more viable energy source than whale oil. If there is a much better source of energy besides oil out there, it will be found. The government trying to force it with boondoggles that don't work and waste taxpayer funds, isn't going to make it work. Gubmint control or bust.

| You must know about sources of fossil fuel the rest of us do not, the rest of the world knows that the only real path to energy independence does not lie with oil. Look at the messes we get into trying to preserve the petro-chemical industry as is. The long view will win in the energy industry, it is a certainty. |

| We have a big car sales lot where I live with one solar wind stack on it. It spins all the time whether it's a completely windless day or whether it's windy and the wind is blowing the OPPOSITE WAY OF THE WAY THE THING IS TURNING. It's obvious they put it there because they thought getting in good with Obama would sell cars. It's also obvious the thing is running on electricity, because you can't get a pin wheel to spin like that on a windless day, let alone that big heavy thing.

Look at the messes we get into trying to preserve the petro-chemical industry as is. The long view will win in the energy industry, it is a certainty. Look little kid. Get off mommy's computer. I'm 50 years old, and I've been living with the warning we are running out of oil for about that long. Pockets they said were empty FILLED BACK UP. We don't even really know what creates oil. They used to say it was dinosaurs. Now they think it was plants. Point is, WE DON'T KNOW. When whales were about exhausted we found an ulterior source. Trust me. If we ever really run out of oil, we will find another source. That's the way of man. We are pretty damn smart, and the smartest innovations haven't been made by pointy heads in academia but the "low lifes" the pointy heads look down on. Remember, the Wright Brothers repaired bicyles for a living before they made the first airplane.

| Throwing taxpayer money away on failed businesses should make everyone mad. Why is the left OK with dollar after dollar being flushed down the tube. If the technology is viable, it will make it on it's own......if it's not why is it the taxpayer's responsibility to fund projects doomed to fail. Private money + private investors = new technology..............it's not the Government's job.
