So observations with the benefit of 20/20 hindsight. This article and many of the comments were written in 2008. Note the mention of vaporware products funded by government grants. And Plug-ins are still just getting started with the Ford Fusion Energi hitting the market next March.

Have we built any new Coal or Nuclear Electrical Generation Stations? Not many. Have we brought in natural gas from Canada. Nope, blocked by the Democrats.

The article seems to suggest National or North American energy independence is not a worthy goal because it would not reduce global oil consumption. But the blood-letting in the middle east has continued, while we have not reduced our consumption of foreign, i.e. not North American oil.

When I was young we used to sin a song about blowing in the wind. The answer my friend is blowing in the wind to the question of how many soldiers must die, before we end our dependence on foreign oil. Four years and counting... this time volt for energy independence.

When we run out of oil then we won’t have a choice anymore but use alternative energy source.

Energy independence is possible. The first step is to do away with the Dept of Energy. The second step is to end Govt. subsidies to force a solution. Let the inventors and the free market find the path. The third step is for everyone to recognise that different locations in the USA have different energy needs. Some locations are not suited for solar power, some are not suited for wind power generation, and some locations have no people density or short commutes suitable for mass transit. In other words, don’t force a solution that only works for a segment of society. Most of Europe has poor roads and dense populations while most of the USA does not.
