You have to have mixed feelings about the benefits of stable
investment credits in wind and plug-in hybrids versus stuffing $200
billion of unrelated stuff into a $700 billion bailout.

Renewable energy is the major hope we have on the horizon for busting
stagflation through productivity increases. If the country and out
allies dedicated itself to the goal, oil (excluding taxes) could be
under $20 a barrel in just a few years. The US can have a huge
number of new jobs in the energy industry, and be in the energy
exporting business.
