Renewable Energy

robert b asked:


Lawmakers only focus on these high gas prices. I think they should look into investing funds into renewable energy and alternative fuels.

This is the only way we can successfully become energy independent. And these fossil burning fuels are ruining the environment.

For example they could put _______ billion dollars into automobile companies so they could lower the cost of hybrid cars, and _____ billion in the production of these vehicles.

chattterus asked:


Do you think they should just play cheerleader?

or

Do you think they should provide economic incentives for people to invest?

The reason I ask is republicans are blocking all recent attempts to provide economic incentive for wind and solar production while claiming they support these technologies.
