Re: Solving the Energy problem.

just exactly how do you expect we would "export energy"?  So take a
few of your "GWe"s  (sheesh) you claim we can get from geothermal,
just exactly how do you propose we package up all that nice juice and
get it over seas?  Batteries?

***, you are stupid.

We crack hydrogen, you stupid ***.

I went into detail about this.

During the Clitton years of dollar strength, we could have INFLATED
our way to a solar and wind -powered America. At the end of this
road, our trade deficits would have fallen through the floor as we no
longer needed to import any oil.

At that point, supposing we had surplus electricity, which we should
have, we could use the excess to crack steam and sell it for export.
That FURTHER strengthens our balance of trade.

If you combined that with technology initiatives such as the gd'd
power plants we could produce and sell, the cars running on H2 that we
could produce and sell, electric motors, batteries, all kinds of
things on an "oil-less" transportation grid, the USA's balance of
trade could be, COULD BE, right now better than China's, with the
balance being in cutting edge IP and technology, rather than mountains
of plastic ***.

That would have given the ol' Reserve Currency another 50 years of
life, prevented the financial collapse we're going through, prolonged
the Empire etc.

A small investment...less than the Iraq War that Herbort loves so
much.

Instead, what did we get? We got Clintonomics...a ponzi feeding one
bubble after another. The good times rolling...SUVs...McMansions.

We SQUANDERED OUR WEALTH feeding an ASININE, self-destructive concept
of suburbia that is a DINOSAUR.

At this point, I don't know if we haven't passed the PSR already,
whether something like this could even be done. It's a lot easier to
patch the roof in the sun than a hurricane.
