Obviously, we are the most wasteful in the world!
Ok, but that doesn't mean we should jump the shark and go crazy with government spending on solutions.
That to is wasteful.
You tell me how wasting energy helps consumers or economy that has to pay more for the energy to produce and transport goods, except the companies making more profit than anyone in the history of the planet?
Leisure.
People waste money and energy for convenience all the time.
That is how some people like to live, I don't tell others how to spend their money.
No, we only do what's efficient.
There is no clear answer to what is efficient yet.
That's why your proposing massive spending on R&D which is wasteful.
Businesses can spend their own money researching what is the best way to create better energy efficiency.
If that approach would have worked we wouldn't be facing an energy crisis now with an the most inefficient systems in the industrialized world, now would we?
It time for leadership in our energy program.
But it didn't work.
You can blame Reagan et all, but if it were such a great plan, the nation would of rioted when it was cut.
What are you talking about, everyone is complaing about high energy costs!
I'm not complaining, I know how to ration my own resources to the point of enjoying my life just fine and I'm not rich.
Besides, why should the government do stuff just because people complain.
People complain about a ton of dumb crap, much of which is their own doing.
So once we are reduced to a nation of poor people, prices will go down. All we need is another Depression and we'll be all set!
I see you are a man with a plan! :sun
There you go again, all or nothing.
There is no reasoning with you.
I do like independent energy things, but you turd up what could be an interesting discussion, with your political love fest, with whatever your favorite politician wants to do.
