Americans are; it’s the liberal left and Demon-rats that are not.

In the 1800s the Opium trade helped Britain a lot too...
Energy IS the economy. Energy surplus, and thus energy density, is the only thing which can drive economic productivity. One barrel of oil contains something like 5 years of human work-energy, and uranium is even more dense.
Wind and solar, as of now anyway, are far less dense sources of energy.
Following the logical conclusion of the green political sloganeering would make us all far poorer, less healthy, and shorten human lives.
Whale oil is a renewable, carbon-neutral bio-fuel.

The American people have no idea of how critical the oil and gas industry is to our economy.
It is no overstatement to say that the oil and gas developments, especially the development of fracking, have been driving our and propping up the economy of the country.

I read last week something like 250 coal plants are being built in China and India RIGHT NOW and another 900 are on the drawing boards.
The author wrote “neither resource [oil and coal] is what today one might call “clean” energy.” This is pure BS. With emission controls, they are very clean. It is only if you consider CO2 as a pollutant that they are dirty.
But lots of analyses have shown the overall carbon lifecycle emissions for solar, wind, and fossil fuels are identical.
Y’all can say, “it’s the liberals!”, yet I do not and have not seen y’all serious enough, to outright rid the nation of their blight. Yrs, I mean y’all complain, whine, argue, and bellow, in your circles. Whhen a liberal stands up and spews, you turn away, silent. Y’all ALLOW THEM SPACE TO POISON AND DO NOTHING.
Where are the Arya Starks when they are needed????
Reality, sooner than later, will get its revenge.
Our former wealth has allowed us to afford a certain amount of delusional fantasies. That will soon come to a end.
Good Read thanks for the insight.
America has always been an idealistically naive country.
It still is.
