- Q:
Why is drilling the only alternative to lowering energy prices?
Wouldn't adding Solar Panels to every school and public building help take down
energy?
Adding Wind power to the areas that would benefit most by that natural
resource?
Using all that waste oils and greese that every restaurant in this nation tries
to get rid of to generate energy?
Trying to squeeze every bit of methane gas out of our landfills?
Switching to energy efficient lights, putting more tougher standards on energy
draining equipment like the A/C?
The more I read about what we could be doing that is so simple and easy to do if
we jsut had a tiny bit of goverment leadership...it sickens me that drilling for
more oil is the ONLY answer according to the politicians.
So many ways to get out of this. You say it would cost a ton to put Solar
Panels on every school? We are printing money for this war, why couldnt we do
this to help the country out?
It takes money and leadership but no one is willing to stand up only if it
benefits them in the pocket. Thats all I see from congress and the
administration. -

A: There will be things we haven't thought of yet. In San Francisco at the Exploratorium,
there is a bicycle that you pedal really quickly to keep a light bulb going.
There's little pockets of small changes that aren't too hard to like - Ikea charges a
nickel for a throwaway plastic bag and under 1.00 for their great big bag. Half the
shoppers at the grocery stores I go to bring their own bags.
We need a touch of I-Energy and I-Wind and I-Solar. It's a small world and I think the
need to change walloped every country. Something like 30% of all children have some form
of asthma - it's just not a bad idea to move towards cleaner and hopefully renewable
energy.
I think it's the best idea. more - Post your own answer

A: I believe it...IRS is busy auditing people like me..i made a honest mistake regarding
cashing out one of my stocks and they were owed 150.00...between me, accountant and IRS we
had to spend 3000.00 in labor costs...so i'm not surpised that they don't have time to go
after the wealthiest.

Wait a sec.....???? Didnt we have a food shortage around the world? Isnt food

keep buying fertilizer stocks at higher prices????
Look at those Agriculture stocks drop!
Every bubble eventually bursts. Remember this next time you see a stock rising
nonstop.
We arent running out of oil, food, metals, and coal. -
