I don't see that at all. The stimulus package and the new budget is full of investments for renewable energy. That is going to be the gift that keeps on giving to our economy for decades. I know that you guys don't agree with that, but I remember the same objections to the Internet and the disintermediation it brought to businesses. Many business people were terrified of the change it brought and fought tooth and nail to squash it. The music and movie industries were two such industries that really tried to squash Internet innovation in their businesses. After they realized that opposition was just hastening their own demise, they did a 180 and now have embraced it, much to their profit.
