Foreign oil or newer technologies?
With 70% of our oil now coming from foreign countries and our $ with it, do you think the US government should help with funding for newer technologies for autos and home heating etc? I was in 10 cities in Germany and most of the time on a bus. We saw wind farms and solar panels on houses everywhere. I asked our tour guide how this was possible? She said the German government is a leader in green investment. They give citizens a tax rebate if you put solar panels on your house. Many smart cars and bikes is an understatement. It really put us to shame and made us look like a fat spoiled country.
We could be off foreign oil within a couple years with technology already available (without drilling in ANWR) while creating millions of US jobs and saving billions of dollars, but someone is getting rich off keeping things the way they are now. With over a trillion $ spent in Iraq so far and $700 billion going out for oil imports each year the government could actually help the country out by supporting American energy companies who invest and make lives better at home.
