<<Deserts make great sites for solar farms tho... but a little far from demand>>
... current tech DC power transmission could work, and well, but require moolah to kick off.
once the planet sees the imperative and oil stays at 150/barrel (and all other fuels gravitate towards that standard), the moolah will be there, for pebble and solar everything
<<Traditionally, what happens is immigrants adopt to the prevailing culture, rather than the other way around. Otherwise the immigration becomes more in the way of a takeover. Are you suggesting thats what must or should happen in Europe?>>

- different segments of usa population breed at vastly different pace, demographically speaking, and continuing immigration adds accelerant to the pile. the experiment may not work after all.
<< - one person one vote per india model will not be able to cut it on a level playing field
Not sure what you mean by this>>
When there are no man-made threats around and all around you are busying with killing each other off, one person one vote in usa can appear to be the right way.
Upon a levelized arena, where no geography is secure from man-made threats, and all are competing all different ways, what worked before may not work anymore, given the changed circumstances, and should the system not be able to adapt, then the system ends, one way or another path.
it is far easier for china to become more democratic, progressively speaking, than it ought to be for america to become authoritarian, although i must observe that so far is not the case, as the usa population seems quite docile.
<<Colorado great place for solar. More sun than most places in US...
Still, price not right yet>>
Colorado will be reasonable come 2012.
<<We are on the cusp of great change.
May the force be with us all>>
... for sure, and can be mathematically proven. |
