I am all for skepticism about govt, Tim.

And skepticism about corporate actions as well.

>>There will always be lobbies for all sorts of government actions, that may be what gives the motivation for the action, but it doesn't modify or refute the point that we should be skeptical about such government actions.<<

Tim -

I may be off base here, but it seems to me that you would be willing to apply this notion of skepticism more to environmental or alternative energy actions by the government than you would to anything they do militarily, or anything they say about what they do militarily. At least insofar as this current administration is concerned.
