Reply #28: Right? Solar power's been commercially available since the 70's or 80's... [View All]

But it's only now that's it's finally becoming "efficient"?? And in this case, "now" = 3 years ago... Anyone who values an actual free market can't expect oil-dependent companies like BP or GE to switch to renewable, decentralized power sources over the veritable monopoly they already control. If anyone need an example from history's past, the destruction of trolley systems across the US should be key.

How the f*** is it that we can hear debates about using 'carbon capturing systems,' a technology that won't be commercially viable for 20 years at many best estimates, while decrying solar and wind energies as lacking technological viability? Bulls*** hypocrisy is all I hear....
