U.S. May Have Only Five Years of Oil Left

So when, exactly, do we get to regulate a product that causes harm? What is the threshold for you?

 

You'd be in favor of renewable energy, increasing fuel efficiency mandates, and gently using tax policy to encourage conservation and responsible energy use ........ if only the mean people weren't unkind to you?

Interesting. That seems like something you should be able to get over. But I hear that from Trump voters too. They elected him because I am .... condescending and elitist. Or worse.

Nah, it's just an agenda you don't favor advancing. We use government and tax policy, and social encouragement, to direct productive behavior all the time.

You enraged about insurance and seat belt laws? High taxes on tobacco and alcohol? Or do those just make sense? Environmental and energy responsibility actually makes sense too.

 

I don't know how you say it cheap the cost to build one of them is ridiculous they wouldn't make their money back in like 30 or 40 years from what I remembered based on what they produce so cheap wouldn't be the answer I would use wasteful is what I would go with

 

He provided you the levelized cost of electricity. Without any tax credits, onshore wind has a levelized cost (which includes their capital cost as well as operations and maintenance, variable costs, and transmission cost) of $50.79 per megawatt hour. Natural Gas has a cost of $64.55 per megawatt hour.

 

Dang you hang on to cars a long time. My daughter's friend in high school drove a Prius. She graduated in 2004. (They came to the U S. In 2000)

I drive one. But I don't get any brownie points. I just found and old one with remarkedly low miles for an exceptional price and I'm cheap.

My niece told me I couldn't date hot women driving a Prius. I'm in my late 60s, I don't think the car is why I'm not dating hot women.
