The World's solar plant thermal plant is on-line providing electricity to California and its customers.

Americans relying on the Sun instead of executive officers like those of Enron and the Carbon economy.

American does not need the Keystone Pipeline to possibly ruin the environment. The taxpayers could own their city, county or state solar field which would be a return to socialism and away from vulture capitalism.

Forbes seems to be missing out on publicly owned energy and instead seems to be leaning with the old capital ideas of restructuring with thoughts of loosening regulation supply-side economics.

1. Yes, the thought of people not needing the massive grid is really upsetting to the 1%.

So they are trying to wrest those dollars for access to it while they can, and are hoping they can somehow still kill solar altogether. Or take control of it so they can get the same profits.

2. The Obama-Biden Energy Plan

Barack Obama and Joe Biden have a comprehensive plan to invest in alternative and renewable energy, end our addiction to foreign oil, address the global climate crisis and create millions of new jobs.

The Obama-Biden comprehensive New Energy for America plan will:
•Help create five million new jobs by strategically investing $150 billion over the next ten years to catalyze private efforts to build a clean energy future.
•Within 10 years save more oil than we currently import from the Middle East and Venezuela combined.
•Put 1 million Plug-In Hybrid cars -- cars that can get up to 150 miles per gallon -- on the road by 2015, cars that we will work to make sure are built here in America.
•Ensure 10 percent of our electricity comes from renewable sources by 2012, and 25 percent by 2025.
•Implement an economy-wide cap-and-trade program to reduce greenhouse gas emissions 80 percent by 2050.
