"If alternative energies were cost competitive ..." If autos were built in the tiny quantities that renewable energy devices are, autos would not be affordable. The "big bad powerful" oil companies have controlled the Congress since they became titans, and now they also control the executive branch. they have, and will continue to make sure that the government does nothing to get renewable energy to a size that offers economies of scale. the government subsidizes the auto industry by building roads. Bush says he will do everything necessary to aid coal companies, gas pipe lines, transmission systems. Fine. I'm all for that (except the coal) because we need a much more efficient power distribution system right now. at the same time we should spend billions to perfect solar devices, windmills, and whatever else does that job. as to costs: think of the medical bills reduced by clean air in the cities.
