Part of the problem is that oil is on the stock market, and when it goes up on the market bam it will go up on gas prices with in a day or 2. You do not see this fast price effect on say items made with grains, like ceral and bread.<br> <br> I strongly believe if the government said it would pay up to 80% of the cost to install any form of green energy (wind, solar etc) you would see a boom of green power being installed at homes. They could do a grade pay, so if you install something that gets you 10% of energ from say solar they would pay 20% of the cost, if you paid to have something that has 25% or more green energy they would pay 80%. Getting all those homes with that much energy off the grid would save so much more oil than people driving slower /less ever could.<br> <br> Think about the effect that would cause, it would be so huge, you would have tons of companies isntalling green energy, so they would benefit, and then all those homes getting a good portion of energy from a green source. It would be a way better return than that stupid 1 hour turn the power off deal that happend just a bit ago.
