The Obama "green" energy program is going to go down as the biggest "con job" ever perpetrated on the American taxpayer. At a time when countries have been emphasising nuclear, for example, we are going to not only build windmills but also duplicate a totally new infrastructure to transmit this energy.
A trillion here..a trillion there...what the hell...we can just print it! We don't have the need to think about only spending money where there is an economic return...not if your the government, and as Obama said...ONLY THE GOVERNMENT CAN HELP THE LITTLE PEOPLE..Well..not exactly..but words to that affect.
China is planning to double its production of oil and had a deal with Iraq to develop three major fields prior to the war. I guess since we are going have the use of "tides" that is not something for Joe sixpack American to be concerned. Possibly the new Iraqi government should go back and renew those 1997 agreements with China to develop half of the Al-Ahdab field, the country’s second largest oilfield. Prior to the US invasion of Iraq, CNPC was negotiating for rights to develop three other Iraqi fields. These are Halfaya, Luhais and Suba. Hey.....let them come back and spend some of those American dollars to build develop those fields...for China!
Nuclear is one of the cleanest of alternative energy sources but we have not built a new plant in this country since 1997...and do you think the talent to build these plants is abundant and just waiting for a call to work? Not in the Messiah's "green energy budget". On the other hand, last year China said that by 2020, the country’s nuclear industry would produce 40GW, more than 40 times this year’s capacity and requiring annual growth of more than 20 per cent. Stupid people...don't they have tides in China?
Dear Lord help us...You have given us tremendous natural resources and our people are rejecting this bountiful gift. Lord, be gentle with us in the end of our time. We have tried to be good stewards of your gifts, have probably the strongest environmental rules on the planet,,,but currently our liberal leaders are nostalgic for the simple lazy days of wind and sun to pump our water and warm our bodies. barrrfffffffffff!!
