Right, but nowhere do I see a cohesive, comprehensive energy strategy. By decentralizing our energy grids, and increasing interconnections between them, we can get at least a 40% boost in electrical-use efficiency. How's that for a 'Marshall Plan for America'? Or how about some serious government R & D funding for fuel cells? They can run (even with reformers, using petro-stock) at two or three times the efficiency of our internal combustion engines... and without the life-shortening side effects the good old 'internal' brings us. Or extending efficiency standards to SUVs and light trucks? That could knock off 2 or 3 months of annual oil imports. I bet with 1/10th. of the tab for 'missile defense' diverted to fusion power research we could bring fusion power production over-the-top. The top research labs are at energy break-even right now with the most advanced designs.... Truth is, it's going to take a lot of work, and a lot of money... but sending all our dough to the middle east and being forced to prop up tinpot dictators is not a rational strategy. So where is the political leader standing up for real energy independence for America, and investing in a stronger future for us all?
