The Energy Disaster - Ralph Nader
http://www.ralphnader.com/interest/111403.html

The word "chaos" cannot do justice to the omnibus energy legislation properly mired in something called the House- Senate conference. Inside tyranny by the Republicans and the outside full nelson grip on Congress by the oil, gas and coal corporations are driving the Democrats to think about Filibuster. And deservedly, the bill merits defeat.

In fact, nobody but a few insiders even know all that is in the bill. Where are the pages containing the changes, rejections, additions and golden handshake insertions, ask the Democrats and the press. The Republicans have excluded the Democrats from many deliberations on this monster legislation, marinated in oil and driven by cash register politics.

Go get them Ralph!

1. Well maybe our grandchildren can go back to oil lamp?
If we have not killed off all the whales.Time we learned to use natural things like sun and water. All these people with brains around you would think some one would come up with something or have they and we will not use them?
