Let me make this simple. Long term solutions to the energy "crisis" are and have been known for 30 years. These were developed in the late 1970s after thne first oil crisis. You might ask, so why do we have this problem now ? Government and the people are unwiling to make the decision. In the former case, the cause is brinkmanship of the environmental movement who are against everything that will work due to their own theology of Gaia. In the latter case, the people are waiting for a miracle ... a mythologial perpetual motion machine to get energy for free from the vacuum.
Energy solution: nuclear power plus breeder reactors to make hydrogen from water and coal. Natural gas is used for peak load power only for the transition. Oil is used for the transition period for transportation. That's it. Period. Full stop. This can provide plenty of energy for thousands of years. Japan and France have been moving to nuclear power for decades. So is China. Why isn't the US doing it ? The environmental movement is against it.
In simple terms, the environmental movement wants everyone to live as the Amish do now ... simple lives in harmony with nature. That's why they oppose every workable soloution and support only the unproven or impossible.
The people want a miracle and make stupid decisions. Like not buying flood insurance ... or not buying earthquake insurance. And supporting those carnival operator-like politicians who promise those miracles.
The solutions exist. Who will move from the brink ? The government, the people or the environmental movement ? Put in these simple terms, only the people can make this decision. They need to support leaders who embrace nuclear power.
That means Big John McCain, big time.

Bunk...business has cut employees,cut waste,raised prices,and made their product smaller.....Whats the next steps for profits?
Cut pay of the CEO, CFO, etc. That's a lot of money.
hehe, guess I hit that fastball over the centerfield wall ;-))
how about selling more product overseas ...
stop doing all these financial tricks and focus on the business ...
increase productivity ... hire some talented young people ... hire reliable older people ... make health plans a high deductible and cut health management costs ...
locate plants in small towns in the midwest where there is a reliable work force and costs are low.
Pay top 25 executives in stock on a five year moving avferage basis.
Stop kissing the butts of the greenies ...
odd how these financial firm analysts are rushing over each other to trash the others' stocks
sell side analysts-the most useless job in God's green earth....where were these idiots 70% higher?
btw, it seems clear the current oil spike is due to the confluence in index fund & speculator buying of all available better grades of oil AND a lack of refining capacity to refine surplus heavy, sour grades into diesel & gasoline.
Bunkerman...why are waiting to return to the cave to toss the towel ie your bearish comment yesterday...is there something next week you anticipate keeping you in the game.

Kerkorian's company has expressed confidence in Mulally and Ford's management team and completed a tender offer last week to buy 20 million Ford shares for about $170 million, or $8.50 per share. Kerkorian purchased additional shares at the market rate after the tender offer was completed, according to the SEC filing.

And I have the actual book by Eliot Ness, too.
It's really good ... Ness and his team really mostly used sawed off shotguns, by the way, not Tommy Guns. But the gansters used the choppers..
After being a Gman, Ness became mayor of CLeveland. There's an Eliot Ness micro-brew nowadays - it's good - I had one last night at a BBQ.
good job mfl.
malcolm in the middle really cracks me up. as does king of queens and seinfeld.
