"But going (green, my edit) electric could be argued as a national security imperative. That would take years to undo." About half or a third as long as it would take to actually do, even if it was all done thru the legislative process. There are no quick fixes, even tho that's really what we need. We can fuck up the economy, like the Depression on steroids kind of fuck up, by going cold turkey on fossil fuels, but it will take 25 or 30 years with our current economy to replace the lost energy.
