Pricing up the Cost of Energy
Pricing up the Cost of Energy with a HUGE new Tax does not ensure American Prosperity -
Today we live in a global economy. Sustainable creation of American manufacturing jobs depends on reducing the costs of manufacturing (cost of labor, materials, production facilities, and energy) to the level of the industrial competition. Just adding a huge new tax on energy that increases the cost of all American products made with or delivered to market with energy does not reduce the cost of manufacture, sustainably create jobs, or increase American competitiveness.
Tilting the energy playing field in the direction of a tiny renewable energy sector that is currently in political favor at the expense of huge existing fossil fuel and nuclear energy sectors that currently power the majority of economic activity in the nation and are largely responsible for sustaining American quality of life is fundamentally unwise.
Now is the time for wise energy choices that will preserve as much as possible of American world leadership and security. Mindless dedication to an unsustainable renewable energy only agenda will accelerate the transition of military and economic power to new developing super states in Asia.
America, it’s time to wake up from your economically unsound unsustainable government hand out driven Green Energy induced stupor or...
TURN OUT THE LIGHTS.
Your day is over and the day of Asian totalitarian economic super powers that make wiser energy choices has dawned.
