There's no perfect solution,
There's no perfect solution, so why emphasize the negatives? As I understand it, the subsidies will expire in five years. I'm generally opposed to Govt. subsidies, but jumpstarting an industry that has the potential of substantially reducing our dependence on foreign oil seems to me worthwhile. If we concentrate on the negatives nothing will ever be done. If subsidies are a concern, why not transfer the subsidy on corn ethanol,.a most inefficient fuel, to nat gas? (I own some shares of Clean Energy Fuels and Chesapeake Energy.)
