Drill some wells.....develop oil from shale....build some refineries...build some nuke plants....use our own natural resources.....
Energy problems solved for the next 200+ years
One would think that even Dims could grasp so simple a solution....
One would thing that the fact that we have only 3% of the east to get reserves, and use 25% of the oil, would dribble down into some feeble minds. Oil shale? Every scheme that would develop that resource comes up against another basic resource problem. Water.
Nukes? I am all for building the fourth generation nukes, particularly the Thorium ones. But there is a problem of development time. And cost.
We presently have the technology to develop alternative energies, wind, solar, geothermal, wave, and slow current, as well as the nukes. It will take a mixture of all of the above to create a real energy independence for this nation.
