"...we are not ready to abandon oil right now. This is true- ethanol is not ready to meet our demand for fuel, nor are synfuels or hydrogen. But if you remove the current tariff on Brazilian ethanol and group ethanol with biodiesel, thermodepolymerization, synfuels, a mandate for optional worker telecommuting throughout the federal government and preferred bidding for government contracts for companies that adopt the same telecommuting policy as well, you have a mix of solutions that more than meets our energy needs, saves massive amounts of government facilities expenditures in the process, and adds to worker productivity and companies' ability to retain employees. Add to that a 10-year moratorium on taxation of alternative fuel companies and investment therein (my free-market libertarian solution), and you have an economic boom on your hands in the energy sector that would make the Internet boom look like pocket change, coupled with a narrowing trade deficit- likely even a surplus.
