It just doesn’t occur to Harry and those of his ilk
that if an alternative was feasible and profitable
the change would already have happened all by itself.
Hence, it is neither feasible or profitable at this
time. The correct solution, drill here, drill now
is not acceptable to them for political reasons.

Amen. For these lifelong politicians who never worked in the REAL private sector, they have absolutely NO clue that if an "investment" in green energy made sense (without government subsidy), investment capital would flow to it in a nanosecond. The instant something needs government to "prime the pump" (like the multi-decade ethanol fiasco), it's an immediate signal that it's an inefficient use of resources and shouldn't be pursued. Immediate.

Sorry, Harry. You can pass all the laws you want to "deem" that cars get 50 mpg, but you can't pass laws that violate the laws of thermodynamics.
"Green" energy sources may be economically feasible 20-30 years from now, but they simply are not today. If you can come up with a more efficient and convenient energy source than fossil fuels, great. Making unsafe plastic cars doesn't count.
