Energy efficiency now Part 2

[rebelliouseoagj]

Free Energy is real and its here but the coverup is strong, if u are interested in a REAL free energy machine then

just go to LT-MAGNET-MOTORdotCOM and download the blueprints ,it is probably the ONLY working magnet

motor out there. Join the free energy revolution!!

Por favor... please Bob you are retro feeded. How many jobs create building air generators, solar panels, hidro gas, and all what building a clean energy? Millons x 1000000??? Is this a too long question? Guess you can`t explain what your boss does...

WHO IS GOING TO RIDE THE BUS!!!!!!! Who's going to sit around and wait for a bus, then wait for it to get where YOU want to go from where YOU are. We drive cars because we live 15+ miles from work and we'd have to change buss' 2-4 times! Public transportation does not work unless people are too poor to drive cars.

[Ryukikon]

pose a serious argument or statement after you have thought it through

[penfolduk78]

that is a serious argument

[Ryukikon]

Okay, I will supply a teaser. In the US alone there are tons of people who ride the bus. Many cities have excellent transportation grids. THere are many cities that also don't. People do not take the bus one because many bus systems are not as effecient as they can be. Two Many people wait for friends to bus them around in cities with bad public transit. three and thats it for this teaser 15 miles in an auto is not far, 3 miles can be cover in about 5 minutes and that is with traffic lights.

You have never been outside the US, have you?

At around 7:40, they hadn't had the experience. This is why preservation of institutional knowledge is key. Having worked in state government I've seen what lack of institutional knowledge can do.

[Paetaor]

This guy thinks that the government can do something properly?

Name one think that the US government has done right in the past 30 years and there are 10 that they have messed up.

[roullettechick]

well, theyre pretty darn good at killing innocent ppl

[Thizzmotion]

the absense of government spending does not equate to a right course of action that propels society to the next level of human potential in terms of realizing peace and harmony.

if scientists have already agreed on the right course of action in terms of reaching energy independence, it doesn't matter if it's the government or private enterprise that executes it.

Capitalism is all about getting as much as possible for as little as possible. Right now, that's in coal and oil. So long as the motive is profit, the concept of clean energy is nothing but a pipe dream. And capitalism -- the profit motive -- is inevitable so long as we vote away our own democratic, decision-making power up the hierarchy and allow corporate lobbyists access to that upper tier. Only direct democracy -- participatory democracy -- can break that top-down, profit-fueled system.

[morelshaman]

@egolayer13 I could not say it better. The hegemony of corporatism is the oldest problem & continues to be - there are waves of populism & oligarchy, but the elite control never fades entirely.

Corporations must be divorced from personhood & charters must be wrested from the most egregious scofflaws environmental murderers.

the schumpeterian entrepreneurial side of me says there is profit in renewable energy. as one of the first to do it, i have a first-move advantage to grab market share and to seek economic rent, intentionally. i can buy solar panels for cheap in china, become a major distributor of solar panels in america, work with a new age of electricians who will be the installers/repairers/maintenan­ce servicers, work with marketing team who will show the energy savings, lobby congress for subsidy rebates...

[Thizzmotion]

coal and oil do not yield "as much as possible for as little as possible." both are inefficient because they externalize heavy social costs beyond their profit margin. the total is actually a net loss from a global-optimization perspective. so long as governments protect private property rights, corporations have the legal power to accumulate wealth and use it to uphold the status quo. from a scientific/objective point of view, this situation is sticky, because we should move on to better energy

[navtel]

going green is ok but the cost takes years to recoup, maybe never.. sometimes the so called facts they quote are not as accurate as what they should be.. you know what they say about people who figure.

Paul Jay is great.

We could be energy independent tomorrow. But then "the international community" would go mental and call us protectionists. btw, China has already labeled us as such. The current administration, as was the previous, is in no position to come through on the promises that form the foundations of their respective political campaigns and policies. Lip service.

That is all. Households need to wake up out there. And individuals need to begin solving things w/o always involving government.
