People we are so screwed. When is this Demoncrate controlled congress going to start reading what they pass?
Seriously it's like; hey I got 1200 pages here that we have to pass today!!! Oh, it's called the cap and trade bill, wait people don't like that so let's call it the energy or green bill and at the end I'll get out there and call it a jobs bill. But either way it has to pass today because we have another 1400 pages tomorrow. Read? Don't read it, you don't have time, just vote yes. Don't ask me how to vote yes, I've always voted present. (This has been a fictitious conversation between the President and the house leadership)
These Demoncrates are scared, they know they are going to lose in 2010, and lose big. Now, they are trying to pass anything they can as much as they can. They now they must do all the stupid stuff before the election year begins this November.
My theory is: The 800 billion in stimulus or (jobs bill according to the cleric Hussein) should have been spent on green energy. Yep all of it. We should have improved and added Hydro power, built tons of solar plants, wind farms, and wave farms. All of these could have been scattered though out the country. The amount of immediate jobs would have been enormous, from day one. From day one you say? I say yes as soon as that bill was signed the companies manufacturing those products would have increased production and added shifts. That right there is more jobs. They would have to expand and refit in some cases, that's more jobs. From the designer to the janitor, all would have seen a boost in employment. Once projects start to become complete you have the maintenance and up keep issue. That again, is more jobs, good high paying, and high tech jobs. Now once these projects are in the works, every American household now gets free electricity (up to a point, maybe $100/mo) for let’s say a period of 2/3 years. That puts money in my pocket and yours. At that point, we all start paying for electricity again but at a much lower rate, all we have to do is pay for salaries, up keep, and repay the government for the loan. Once the loan is repaid the electric bill will drop alitte more. Now even if it cost twice as much as the 800 billion, how much more are we going to spend with the cap and trade? At least at this point we "DO" become green and we all save money in the long run. Our kids will thank us!!
Now for my arguments: We have alot of hydro in this country that is made up of old less efficient generators. We are a Hugh country with lots of land mass, lots of park land. If we did wind farms in and around these, amongst others worst case is the power lines would provide a fire break in the wildness. (again, lots of jobs) Wave farms is a new but good tech as far as I can see, they should be all over the place. They are high maint. but free energy is free energy. Nuke plants? We need more nuclear power plants. They work and they're environment friendly. OOhhhh but what about the waste? You put the stuff on a rocket and send it into space or the sun. But what if the rocket exploded??? Do you know how they transport in now? They do it in containers that can take any amount of damage. The amount of solar power we could create just from the the dessert is insane. And yes, I have thought about dust and sand storms that could and would cover them. That's why we have prisons. Yep, if we don't have one close enough we build one, we need more anyway. Low security prisoners would go out once a day and dust/blow off the panel for optimal performance. BS drone work like that could be done by them and the more high tech labor would be done by high tech guys/gals. When they get out, they would have a foot in the door with a good high paying company. Soon we would have an almost completely free power grid!!!
And then you say, but Dave, you’re missing the most important part of the cap and trade bill...... And I say unto thee, I have missed nothing.
Oh yee of little faith, The Germans made fuel from coal in WWII. That's what we do with our coal industry. Yep, as these new plants come on line we start to refit the coal plant to make fuel, for our cars. Before you know it, we will stop sending billions a year to countries that want to kill us.
Completely energy free, we have the money or at least were willing to spend it in other places. I have covered every part of the country so know one will be left out. We could all have the same prices if it would all go into one pull and divided from there. So lets say SE KY isn't a good place for solar or wind, well we have the coal mind so you give us a break on the power and we'll give you a break on the go go juice. AND LORD KNOWS I HATE TO SAY THIS BUT WITH ALITTLE GOVERNMENT REGULATION IT COULD WORK, AS LONG AS WE UNDERSTAND THAT WE ARE ALL ON THE SAME TEAM!!
