With biofuels, solar, and wind there should be advances in technology to make them viable, or at least able to help meet energy demand... we can not sustain our energy requirements solely on coal and oil forever, so we must continue to explore and expand alternative efforts...

Hey, it's not his billions. It's not like he is funding these things with his hundred million campaign fund. It's only taxpayer money.

It did not meet GasBuddy guidelines: it did not cause us to praise the "Dear Leader".

Obama (BHO & Co.) has been using a stool alright.

And the American people are who he has been crapping upon.

I have no problem with alternatives. BUT they must be started and sustained on their own. NOT subsidized or pushed by loans and tax breaks. You know, like every other business in a free country!

This is pure politics and power politics at that. Destruction is its goal. They know it and they want it.

Let the greenies walk. Let them sit in the dark. Let them freeze. LET THEM GO FIRST.

And that includes Obama. Let his "Beast" limo run on batteries!

Green is red.

Why is it that when I read the title of the article all I could think of was stories of schooling years ago that had a stool where the troublemaker or the 'dunce' had to sit.

Tax money just keeps getting flushed. Apparently taxation with representation is not much better than taxation without representation.

By golly!
How much taxpayer money has to be thrown away to failures before some concrete benefit comes back in return.
The IRS is so determined to collect taxes and yet appears to throw that money away so readily.

Although this is a good idea and it needs government support it may take time.

One wonders how much more money we need to throw at these projects before we hit paydirt.

"It's better to have tried something to get us off arab oil than spend another 30 years not even trying."

You mean like drilling in the Gulf,Alaska and elsewhere? Or like building the pipeline so we can get CANADIAN oil instead of Iranian oil?

Short sighted.
You need to put wind and solar together. The wind blows less in the summer but the sun is out longer, is higher in the sky and there is less cloud cover.

Ethanol is garbage, it reduces milage and destroys cars from the inside out. This article proves that simply throwing money at something won't make it work.

However, if wind and solar companies were required to survive on their own merit (instead of becoming dependent on taxpayer money) they would be more motivated to succeed.

Another reason the government should never be an "investor" in private projects. Taxpayer money is not speculative money.
