Nanosolar

I saw this political cartoon and it shows this elderly BIG OIL man sitting at a desk contemplating the oil crisis and the over 100 dollars per barrel cost and we see the above.

I just read where a company out in California has devised a means of producing thin film photovoltaic cells that can be mass produced at about a price of 30 cents per watt. Market cost would work out to around 90 cents per watt. Now, if you were to use those thin film cells in CT, you could first get a grant to purchase those cells and get rebated 45 of the 90 cents. On top of that, there is another grant program where you get 50 cents per watt produced. Works out that you could get paid 5 cents per watt to use solar panels on your commercial building, and in CT this means any multifamily dwelling of more than four units. That means, you could essentially get your electrical needs taken care of and get paid if you wanted to build an apartment building, a housing project, a mixed use building, an office building, anything. I don't know what your idea of feasibility is, but having the government pay you for energy sounds pretty damned feasible to me.

Instead our government wants us to use oil. Send young men off to die in a war that makes no sense and was started on the basis of a grotesque lie. At this point, government has gone from bad to worse to worst to flat out absurd. If voters refuse to take action and to allow their finances, their kids lives, and their very planet to simply go up in smoke due to the greed of old, White men in power, and yet voters elect to do nothing about it, one can only assume voters judge themselves to be unworthy of any form of health, happiness, and well being, and that, my friends, is some sad business right there.
