The energy industries will lead the 21st century industrial revolution. Economists in the US, as well as the rest of the Western World, provide this summation of the answer high paying job creation: 21st Century growth will be led by ENERGY! The consensus holds that energy independence, PRIMARILY in the US, will put the US in the leadership role to help our own economy as well as the economies of our friends and allies worldwide. Now is NOT the time to say that our best years are behind us; rather, it is the time to proclaim that we look forward to even better years ahead. Our leadership role is to be cherished and not abused, and assuredly NOT apologized for. The Prerequisite? If your Congressman doesn't act now on this all important issue,then he doesn't deserve your trust. Let your Congressman know that YOU are watching as you prepare to vote in November. ACTIONS REQUIRED 1. Begin drilling for oil off-shore, and in ANWAR 2. Build as many refineries as are required by the market 3. Process coal to produce clean coal oil 4. Begin the construction of at least 50 nuclear power plants 5. Perfect the process of extracting oil from shale in the Rocky Mountain States 6. Research and improve solar-powered energy where possible 7. Wind Power is a political football;everybody is for it(for the last 35 years),but it hasn't succeeded on a large scale because of 'technical' problems and the Market hasn't 'bought in'. Design/manufacture more fuel-efficient vehicles, using CNG immediately, if and only if the market pays for it 9. Conserve energy responsibly 10. These innovations can even bring clear drinking water (Clarified from Ocean water) for use whereever in the world its needed. Remember the Moon Landing challenge? Our Country was "together",AND the technology developed spawned many industries just imagine? What the market is demanding is NOT a series of iterative improvements to that which has already been accomplished - NO! What the market is screaming for is a full range of new technologies, which become do-able with the unbridled development of the best of our energy resources noted above. Any thinking person can see that our economy will add 500,000 to a million high paying jobs in a typical MONTH!) than were given out in the depression-era WPA (relative to the population too). The technical development required to extract energy from the wide variety of sources in the US will demand skilled employment in the fields of petroleum, nuclear, geological, automotive, civil, agriculture, solar, and wind-turbine technologies; and should even lead to Economical means of ocean water purification. Moreover, capital equipment industries supporting new technology for automobile manufacturing and ALL other manufacturing will see an unprecedented revival. Quite clearly, the market will price the goods and services required to take the US from a significant net importer of energy to becoming a significant net exporter of energy. This is a challenge to our educational network as well as to our related industries. The challenge will provide great rewards for those who actively or passively participate as well as to the nation by way of spurring economic growth in the 21st century. Read as many other articles that relate to national security and the World Economy as you can....make yourself informed! Meanwhile, take immediate action in 2 ways: 1. Contact your congressman and say: drill, drill, drill! if he doesn't want to lose the next election. 2. Tell your friends to do the same. It's that important! Copyright (c) 2008 David P Jensen
