We could actually be free of the need to import energy for some time to come! What is needed is a national policy to convert to USE IT. Instead of, for example, wasting over five hundred million tax dollars on a futile effort to promote a solar energy company with a product having a minimal market here, there should be a national effort to convert our motor vehicles to natural gas, a cheap and easy thing to do - far more sensible than making ethanol out of corn or building electric cars (which will require many more power plants to come online on our elecrtric grid). The effort would include capital development of distribution infrastructure. It would be comparable to Roosevelt's Rural Electrification program, or Eisenhower's National Defense Highway System, commonly known as our interstate highway system. Instead, we are bound by a ideologically-driven technical and economic policy which is doomed to failure because of its naïveté.
