[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] We need strong action from the government to make this work but individuals need to be realistic and support the changes necessary.[/quote]

What action? What changes? Be specific for God’s sake. [/quote]

Electric car subsidies to match the dollar amount that we subsidize oil for starters. Level the playing field instead of giving billions of dollars to oil companies that then gouge us in return. Massive investment in high speed rail and local public transportation hubs. Efficiency regulations on all new household energy products.

The only reason all of the above has not been done already (which would have put us in a much better position at this time) is that Republicans have blocked every single step away from our dependence on oil. As for the average citizen, they need to get behind efficient technology instead of whining about it. Remember when everyone on the right fought against and complained about LED light bulbs?[/quote]

Why subsidize electric cars? Either pay for gas or don’t. If you don’t want to pay for gas, you go buy an electric car. Just not with my tax dollars. And invest in rail? No one wants to ride the train.[/quote]
