re: No one is against trying to find a better source of energy, but until that happens, we're stuck in the realities of a global economy powered by oil. Electric cars. The equivalent cost compared to oil is $1 per gallon. The delivery infrasture is already there. The R&D is done. We know how to produce electricity, and the 1/3 savings on energy use would certainly make up for the investments in plants. One extreme example: teslamotors.com Imported oil represents 1/3 of our trade deficit The majority of oil profits are invested in other countries We fight wars for oil The money we spend on oil enriches our enemies Pollution and/or global warming, if you buy into it Imagine reversing all that... and keeping the money at home. What's that worth?
