Midknight Review -- new and revised: What I know about green energy will only convince you to invest in oil futures.

Fisker-Karma is a luxury electric car company funded by the Obama brain trust. Why Obama thought it was a good idea to fund an electric car that sells at a starting price of $102,000 plus tax and license, is beyond me. It is a beautiful car made by a company, Fisker-Karma, that has gone "belly up."

Wind and solar farms are impossible in most parts of the United States . . . . too many clouds, to much winter, and not enough desert winds. They will never count for more than 10% of our nation’s energy supply.

Green technology is two decades in the future from being popular, on line and profitable.

Green energy corporations, nationwide, have 30% profit margins, on average, while Big Oil makes an 8% profit, on average.

Apply earned 34 billion and paid 1% of that in taxes. Steve Jobs hated conservatives.

Within the next ten years. all solar panels and most of our wind machines will be made in China.

A123 Systems, a stimulus funded company, now has a stock price of 86 cents, down from 25.77 in 2009. Solyndra is a developing scandal on the Administration and has gone broke, costing the American taxpayer a cool $560 million dollars. Ecotility, another stimulus back battery company, lost 22 million last year and is on the verge of failure. First Solar has received 1.5 billion from the Obama geniuses and is about to lay off 2,000 employees.

We have created just 4,900 net full-time green jobs in the past three years.

GE made 14 billion and paid no taxes with the submittal of a 57,000 page tax form. The head of GE is Obama's job czar.

We have 150 years of fossil fuel supply and the emissions from fossil fuels have been reduced by 95% since 1980.

Obama has effectively shut down the coal industry according to a NPR report. That happened March 27, just a day after the Supreme Court hearings on ObamaCare. Coal supply’s 40% our nations heating and cooling and poor people will be hurt, financial, in a ratio of 20 to 1, compared to those who have enough money not to care -- you know, people like Pelosi, Obama, Elizabeth Warren, Harry Reid, and etc.

California is so cash strapped (my home state), that our communist politicians have decided to require big business to create its own power grid or shut down. Currently, 4 major businesses leave this state per week. California is on track to becoming the nation's first welfare state, and I mean welfare State. We have carried a deficit in state spending for 40 years and time has come to pay the piper. It's ugly out here. Green energy policies and unions are the reason for this State's destruction.

The single most endangered species is the dollar bill; second to that is the middle class and the working poor -- thanks to all the communalists, bicyclists and tent people in the Socialist Democrat Party.

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."

Since you'll only live another 10 yrs max, your antiquated views on energy can be excused and the status quo can be sustained for the short remainder of life you have left.

Wow . . . . one of the best retorts I have read in years. My family history gives me another 23 years . Dad died at 89 and my "mom" died at 92. both active until the end.

But "10 years max" (lol) might be the fact. If you were trying to get an angry response, I gots to tell you that this sort of reader response strikes me as funny and I mean to say, when I finished your comments, I was laughing as hard as I have laughed in years.

You make a very important point, however. If anyone thinks we can use fossil fuels in perpetuity, they are not thinking, but we really do have time to change from a fossil based economy to something else and make that change without hurting the little guy. The "sky is falling" approach is not the way to go.
