This is exactly what I’m talking about. All of these subsidies have been around for a long time and it only get bigger. Now, people are complaining we need to add more for the next industry. 50 years from now, we will need to give even more to the next industry. When will it end? We don’t even have money to help our homeless. Why not start with that first. I don’t want to continue to feed this beast called crony capitalism. You say you’re against crony capitalism but you’re advocating to keep on feeding the beast.[/quote]
we are kinda going around in circle.
I don’t mind not having any subsidies for new alternative energy sources at all.
but how do you achieve a level playing field when gas subsidies are valued at $2 per gallon. how do we remove these subsidies tomorrow?[/quote]I answered you a few post back. Just increase the CAFE value and you can achieve the same result without needing more subsidies. I’m sure if you increase it to 50mpg, you’d kill the gasoline industry very quickly.
Anyways, I think I’ll end our discussion with, I think we’ll just have to agree to disagree. We just have different views as to what’s urgent and important.
