I couldnt agree more, DuckTail... but huge pain in interim we must invest in all you list but we have put ourselves and our future temporarily in a deep ugly hole we would have to put the entire economy on HOLD for about 3-5 years our chance to cut the umbilical oil cord was 1980-1990 we failed, since our energy policy has become clearly "SUV" our creeping socialism has cost us in a huge way our tax structure has bound us toward inefficiency our political system has crippled decision making our investment has been in most of the wrong places our corruption has maneuvered the nation into a corner we are a nation of individuals living far beyond our means and debt makes up the difference now we are irreparably loaded with debt the only way out is thru cleansing, with liquidations, bankruptcies, clearing the decks nice idea, but how do we handle the interim? the FOREX will handle it for us I sense a path coming that parallels Argentina sorry Ducky, too late / jim

Scott: <<<<<Efficient auto & energy technologies...begin to cut the umbilical cord to oil i couldn't agree more, try this site for an alternative energy play, www.rentechinc.com. ragingbull has a superb message board on them as well.

<<...It's time to stimulate the economy by reinvesting in ourselves, our country, our infrastructure. Highway repair and improvement.... bridges, mass transit. Our infrastructure is dangerously neglected, no time better than now to attack the problem. Efficient auto & energy technologies...begin to cut the umbilical cord to oil...>> Scott: That makes TOO MUCH SENSE and I would be shocked if Shrub's Administration would propose anything that practical...=)
