So i been saying this for quite some time, but i heard Tom Friedman echoing the sentiment this week.
The U.S needs to invest in Energy Tech, right now. the economics / environmental and political pitfalls of oil are a fucking disaster, we need to put our gross national brainpower in gear and be the world leader in this arena.
The fact is dash doesn't have any kids, but the rest of you keep on popping em out, increasing the demand for energy, and with the emerging "middle class" in up and coming countries like china, the demand will be even greater.
With the incredible brain power and large concentration of science here, we should be able to make this a booming industry, and by proxy save the fucking earth well save it for us, 1/4 of the mammals will be gone in 25 years, but i digress.
Wind, tidal, solar power are and have been the next big things, and once we make them economically feasible here as opposed to oil and coal, we can export the technology elsewhere.
We don't make anything else here worth a shit, well with the exception of pharmaceuticals, but i think if we all get off the zanax this could be the pivot point for the economy.
course what do i know, iam just some lowely graffiti writer.
