I am all for getting out of the wars we are in, and for getting off of the Middle East Teat. We have wasted 30 years over political bickering, big corporation influence, and “not in my backyard” thinking.
The US needs a multitude of energy sources such as nuclear, wind, solar, natural gas, clean coal and offshore drilling (NOT BIOFUELS). I probably have missed some. We can’t do it all at once without destroying the economy and “main street” (I hate that phrase) America.
The fact is that much of the country and much of its industry needs autos/trucking for transportation of goods and to do their jobs and to get around. We need viable energy sources such as natural gas and infrastructure for those vehicles until something better can be developed.
Let’s all roast SPAM for dinner tonight.
