Our country’s economy is being run by eco-freak fanatics who won’t believe evidence placed in front of them. I’m sure, deep down, Obama and his minions know that creating “green” jobs means less jobs elsewhere and slower growth than would be otherwise. This fact will not stop them in the least. The truth has to be gotten out to average Americans who’ve been conned into believing green jobs will be our salvation. Instead they’ll be an albatross around the neck of the economy.

I visited Wilmington Delaware last week and viewed industrial hypocrisy at it’s very worst.

I saw two Dupont company installations proudly proclaiming themselves green. One was a chemical plant with all the reactor towers and pipes, the other was an office campus with manicured grounds.

The first displayed a wind generator, prominently placed on display in front of the plant. The second was a solar panel array placed front and center on the yard.

The company was shouting “WE ARE GREEN !!”

We know that both were bought with outright grant and tax credit money and that the results were less than that of pissing in the ocean. The cost of manicured landscaping around the many supports of the solar array probably cost more then the electric savings.

It was pathetic to see such pandering

While waiting for our flight back to the US from Madrid about 18 months ago, my wife and I met a group of AMERICAN windmill construction workers headed home on vacation. Guess we got the jobs. Will they get ours?
