“Let the market do its job …”
That’s all well and good Willie. The only problem is that this approach assumes that the market understands delayed gratification.
Unfortunately, I think big energy executives are mostly concerned with making sure their immediate needs are met…i.e. making sure the yacht is fueled up and ready for the weekend trip to the Bahamas–or maximizing the shareholder ROI on the upcoming quarterly filing.
I’d be all for letting “the market” run things, but unfortunately, the market doesn’t have the best track record when there is no oversight or regulation. Indeed, the “what have you done for me lately” and “I want it now” attitudes tend to prevail.
“I’d be all for letting “the government” run things, but unfortunately, the government doesn’t have the best track record when there is no oversight or regulation.”
Agreed, as well.
Just look at space programs, NASA had several failures at the beginning and even more recent failures. Now that NASA has been scaled down we have private programs, Virgin and SpaceX that are also seeing failures. These have not bankrupted the companies but with space travel the slightest thing going wrong means a critical failure and explosion. If they do not get their things in order they will lose investors and shut down, and those investors will probably avoid investing in space companies in the future. You also have to consider that these programs are based on decades of research and scientific discovery by NASA, untold billions of dollars in research they don’t have to do, which is the only thing making it affordable enough for investors to even consider in the first place.
Building the interstate is another good example. Building a road is something a private company can do, and some companies do have their own road systems like the lumber industry. Building the interstate system though is building high quality roads across the entire United States. This needs an insane amount of money to build, has to be able to deal with building across all contiguous states, and required eminent domain to acquire the land to build. This would be a nightmare to figure out outside of federal government.
It may not be the best buddy you have but some things government does better.
“Building the interstate system though is building high quality roads across the entire United States. ”
Do you own a car?
Conservative claims are just so ridiculous that no one with any common sense can even entertain them even for a second. Investing in solar power production would raise the average family’s power bill by $4,000 a year? Sure… Just like Obamacare was going to triple the average family’s insurance premiums.
Nice pic from Brazil. Brings back many great memories. Ah – Brasil!!!! Todo bem!!!
You ever been Flip?
pogo el flippo nunca ha viajado a Brasil, pero Rocky y su buen amigo Justin Bieber amar a las chicas de las termas de Río
Mais – Eles falam portugeuse. Buz – Brazilians will speak Spanish with you only after you try and speak Portugeuse. Man, that country has a monopoly on really awesome women. I think it’s the mix of Portugal and German. With a touch of Italian on the side. That and they start wearing heels at age 3.
The population of Brazil has major dna from native peoples, as well. Also the descendents of CSA diehards who moved there after the Civil War. I’d forgotten about the fact that they mainly speak Portugese. I’ve never actually been there myself, but I had a friend (now deceased) who used to go all the time, and he told me about the termas.
CSA guys went there. Now I never realized that. Interesting. Now I’m getting hungry for some Brazilian food.

An interesting side note, Brazil is the premier user of ethanol, with little or no government market participation any longer. Early on there was, but over time no. And they are a major oil producer but they save most of that for export. They’re also big users of solar and now getting into wind.
And, 90% of their electricty comes from hydro. But unfortunately here in the US we don’t have any rivers – I guess.
How many 13 year prostitutes did you bone there?
None. Flip got them all.
Oh, and for goodness sakes – grow up Josh!
The office of regulatory staff sure doesn’t love solar! They’re in bed with SCEG, and the only people getting screwed in that bed are the consumers!
