The journal ‘Science’ criticizes Trump’s anti-renewable energy policy: ‘The US is failing to benefit from its own innovations’. Renewable energy is now the world’s leading source of electricity. China has become the leading manufacturer while the US is betting on an energy model stuck in the past.

It’s not long before the oil companies get mad at Trump for low crude prices.
GOP = a fossil fuel lobbying firm masquerading as a political party

Voting has consequences. Not voting does too.
We’ve gone Mad Max and are stealing oil now.
The manufacturing ship sailed a long time ago. The real issue nobody talks about in these high-level policy debates is the soft cost. We have the tech, but we wrap it in six months of permitting delays, interconnection queues, and fragmented local codes. You can have the best innovation on earth, but if the local utility can stonewall the project for arbitrary reasons, the innovation doesn’t matter. That friction is what kills us, not just the factory location.
