What is it with these idiots.
We cannot simply move to “cleaner fuels” with a “little sacrifice” short of going 3rd world... Unless these idiots want to start building nuclear power plants all over the country there is no alternative to oil currently available.
Lefties call conservatives “anti science” while the simple fact is lefties give magical powers to science well beyond what knowledge is available today. Just wave the wand and make it so... In the mean time we'll all live a 3rd world existence which one can only assume is their real intention...

Unless these idiots want to start building nuclear power plants all over the country there is no alternative to oil currently available. Almost no petroleum is employed in power generation. Probably less than 2% of our total KwH are generated by fuel oil.
Coal, natural gas and hydro are chief sources of energy.

Since leftists believe in magical thinking, they are constantly angry when their wishes do not come true.
Then they look around for who to blame for their anger and focus on conservatives - (who happen to be realistic rational thinkers).

These are people of the same mind-set as those who pushed plastic bags on us 20 years ago.
Now, they won't exactly admit the
error of their ways, but they (or their descendents) have come to oppose plastic bags and are getting local governments to ban them.
So they push the Nation into green, as in nuclear, etc. Twenty years or so they will be claiming it is bad. [They always need a villain, a cause.] It will be another costly
oops, sorry about that that the rest of us will have to pay for.

I heard a lot of narcissistic magical thinking expressed in Obama’s speech.

I’m getting so I just can’t talk to them anymore.
One friend of mine just criticized Apple for wasting time “making gadgets” instead of coming up with a form of Star-Trek-like transportation device.
They truly live in a magical fantasyland - and they expect the productive members of society to play along.

Saw a terrible movie on SyFy the other night, “Annihilation Earth” I think was the title. Besides the preachy storyline of trust your friends, not all Arabs are terrorists, etc was one (I am sure) unintentional and important observation. If we COULD “kick the oil habit” and reduce fossil fuel (oil) use by leaps and bounds (talking 40-50%), does anyone think the countries that supply the oil, and have some history of state sponsored terrorism would actually let that happen without a response? Or would they strike back to restore the "balance?" I can't believe a country like Saudi Arabia will just let the rest of the world stop buying oil and go green, thereby destroying their own national income and "way of life", such that it is? Just a thought.
