Because they won’t be around forever? Why are you against diversifying where we get our energy from?
I am all for diversification. I am against subsidies. You can have one without the other, you know.
Right now, oil is expensive. This makes other forms of energy attractive, even without subsidies. The government should just step back and let nature take it’s course.
As oil becomes progressively more scarce, alternative energy will get even more attractive. All without dipping into the taxpayer’s pocket.
Alternative energies should come online on their own time, not with massive subsidies and mandates.
I agree with Pickens on natural gas for our vehicles, we have tons of it and natural gas is actually a better fuel than oil-based gasoline.
