Obama to act, seeks action on energy - Since Congress hasn't acted to set a clean energy standard to spur innovation, U.S. President Barack Obama said Tuesday he would step in.

The present administration's policy of installing renewable energy, a lot of it via solar PV, on military installations is a direct wasting of taxpayer money.  He is propping up an industry that has a product that has not been fully developed enough to economically compete in the market place. 

The opening up of federal lands to development of wind and solar which rely on taxpayer funded subsidies to achieve economic competitiveness--another waste of taxpayer money and an action which flies in the face of why the lands were originally taken from the states in which they are located.  Wind and solar may not genrate CO2 emissions but they do have ecological impacts upon the land they are installed on and the land crossed by the long distance transmission needed to bring their power to load centers.  Wind, in particular, uses a massive quantity of building materials per nameplate MW of capacity--a number exacerbated by the low capacity factor to make the quantity of building materials per MWh generated outrageously high.  This inefficient use of materials drives up costs for citizens and business alike while also meaning more extraction and processing to make steel and concrete.

This President will destroy the economic power of the USA which will adversely effect our military power as well, putting ourselves and the rest of the world at the mercy of communist China and extremist radicals of virtually any ideology.
