And you don't think at all - every idea you have requires a government subsidy to even begin and could never self sustain or be profitable - without profits, your energy ideas will never work.

You have any idea of the subsidies the oil companies get from the federal government?

Nonsense...a 5-6KW solar system sold could easily be produced for 1/3 of today's price and would pay for itself in 10-15 years. We lack the infrastructure to mass produce, which keeps cost high and we lack the incentives that would lead to accelerated capacity...
