Who picks up the cost of the fertilizers draining into the Gulf of Mexico causing dead zones in that august body of water the size of New Jersey?
http://news.nationalgeographic.com/news/2005/05/0525_050525_deadzone.htmlHas some one consulted a governor on any of these issues?
Is it your opinion that coal is too cheap to meter? Natural gas? Let me guess, ethanol is too cheap to meter, is that your claim? Is there some special reason that
only nuclear energy be "too cheap to meter" to work?
Let me ask you something, Johnny subsidy boy, did Jimmy Carter not promise to make the United States energy independent through the use of ethanol? The US is not energy independent. There is no evidence that it ever will be so. Since you are referring to a 1954, fifty year old off hand remark by Leo Strauss, a minor official, who was speaking
before a single commercial nuclear plant was built, is it not fair to refer to the remarks of a President of the United States who promised big things for ethanol just thirty years ago?
I note that nuclear energy is basically the
only form of energy where the majority of the wastes can be confined and shipped around on a few trucks. That certainly is not the case with coal. It's not the case with natural gas. It's not the case with oil, and it's certainly not the case with agricultural run off.
