Energy Plan by Dan
By dan | June 29, 2009
Hi friends… it’s been awhile that I’ve been away but I’m back. Just call me Dan the man with an energy plan.
Please don’t think I’m here looking for any debates. We all know by President Obama’s own words Cap and Trade will make your energy costs, my energy costs, and everything else skyrocket in price. This bill is going to administer yet another painful blow to the U.S. economy and ultimately… you and me.
They say it’s all about making the U.S. a leader in the alternative “Green” energy industry. Maybe that will be true but it will take time. In the meantime I have a plan I would like to share with you on how I would solve our energy problem while creating jobs and making the U.S. more independent from OPEC.
First, I think it’s a great idea to offer incentives to innovators and inventors to create and produce new energy producing technologies less dependent on oil. How? Tax breaks? Cash grants? Who knows but it’s an idea.
The plain truth is some components used in developing these technologies may still incorporate petroleum ingredients. Still we would be progressing toward less dependence on foreign oil.
In the meantime, we could be drilling our own land to produce the daily 21 million barrels of oil the U.S uses.
Drilling in eco-friendly ways is attainable. Sustainable, maybe.
Do you see the final outcome of my plan? My energy plan would put millions of people to work in the oil industry all across the nation. The economy would flourish much better. The stats are out there people. Every state in our great country that is drilling now is in better economic shape than all the others that don’t drill.
So maybe my plan is not a complicated energy plan nor is it a long-term plan. It is a plan that could get us on a road to economic recovery while breaking the bands that are killing us tied to middle-eastern oil cartels.
We can do this my friends but I dread to see what is going to happen if Cap and Trade is forced upon us. I dread to hear the news headlines during the winter of 2010: “More found dead in Upstate New York after winter storm.”
Why were they dead? They froze to death because they could not afford the heating costs.
