Solar energy; wind power; alternative fuels; electrical; batteries; mice running on a wheel. All are pie-in-the-sky pipe-dreams.
[b]The truth:[/b] Energy independence for America [b]IS NOT POSSIBLE[/b] any time in the foreseeable future. Because Energy independence from fossil fuels [b]IS NOT POSSIBLE[/b] any time in the foreseeable future.

If you agree or disagree, feel free to make your case.
