The free market works every time it's tried........

Alternative energy began as an "issue" for politicians. It didn't begin as lowered priced options for consumers. Oil not only competes with "growing your own energy", it is much more efficient.

When so-called alternatives were proven to emit MORE pollutants and/or green house gases than conventional sources, the carbon offset scheme was developed. I even discussed it with at length with a company that wanted me to sell certain projects.

If St. Croix ever happens it will be a direct result of subsidies, and not free market capitalism. If it was less expensive OIL, GAS, and ENERGY COMPANIES would be......growing their own, and watching it grow.

Just trying to keep it real.

And I hope eveyone has a great holiday season. I recently had a slight cancer scare (blood in urine - all clear). Glad you and I can continue the friendly debate.

Take care all.
