Political Ad for four more years, wake up America!

Leave it to a YouTube commenter to reduce even the most intelligently discussed social / environmental issues into mindless drivel.

Get ready for the new Obama "water tax", that will be imposed to make up for the cash they lose in gas & coal taxes.
-
If everyone on the planet were to go to "green" independent sources for energy, the government will be there with its hand out to take a tax on some part of it.
-
If the government is so much behind this technology, why is it that local utilities are successfully filing suits to block home owners from installing solar panels and other technologies? This is just like the government charade of pushing alternate energy transportation and touting it as "Free energy" then imposing a per mile tax on cars to make up for what they are losing in gas taxes.

The system that he is describing doesn't really consume any water at all, it is an almost completely closed loop. The water is split into hydrogen and oxygen using electricity, the hydrogen and oxygen are used in a fuel cell to produce electricity, and the output of the fuel cell (water) goes back into the tank to be split again.

@ajvhan We have more oil than we think we have. There's enough oil in Alaska alone to last the US for centuries. For some reason though, we're not allowed to tap into it. Also, there were two reserves (1 off the coast of Siberia, Russia, the other off the coast of Indonesia) tapped a few years ago. Combined, they are as big as the entire middle east put together.
There's plenty of oil, we just CANNOT afford to lose ANY water.

@tylerc217 do you know how much water we have in comparation to fossil fuels?
