The End of the Oil Age? Not Quite

The cash for clunkers program was one of the typical ways the clowns in washington deal with a problem...that is, say one thing and do another. The program was touted as a way to save fuel, but mostly it was to stimulate the auto industry and keep those union jobs secure as a payback for those Obama cronies in Michigan and political supporters. Payback and waste of money like this is what gets the US into the trouble we always find ourselves in. The dimwits and crooks run the Country unfortunately...why do we vote for the self-serving non-patriots again and again? The author is very correct; the US does not have a sensible energy policy...if it has an energy policy at all!!! How long has washington had to develop a sensible long-term energy policy? About 30 years...what a bunch of LOSERS!!! The Country is going broke and they still waste our money like it is their own to waste on their pork barrel projects...How about a 300mph speed train from S. California to Las Vegas, Nevada so citizens can waste their dollars gambling...this is going to happen to the tune of over 5 billion dollars. Harry Reid (ranking senator from Nevada) is getting his wish! Meanwhile, the S Californians drive to work on packed freeways daily with no real transportation alternatives to speak of. This is an outrage! More of the same from our clowns in washington!!! I want to puke....
