The Greening of America

I believe the United States is on a precipice as do most of you. The decisions made in the next 5 years or so will decide whether we remain a great nation or are just going to be another banana republic with a new violent revolution every 5 years or so. I believe our problems are that serious.

Obviously, a new economic system needs to be created. Obviously, we have to go off oil and gas as the principle source of our energy needs and move onto wind, wave, solar, alternative grown fuels etc. This if approached in a useful way will generate thousands to millions of new jobs. This will if properly approached and if big business(especially oil and the big three automakers don't interfere) will take us to a way in which we can remain a great nation.

However, if big business once again stops the will of the people both they and this nation will be finished.

We either all succeed now or we all fail. It's really just that simple.

In America right now. GREED KILLS!

Yes. Lobbyists can influence members of Congress and even the President with all their dirty corporate and oil and big car money. But if they do it is the end of America as a Great nation.

Do you want a Great Nation or a Banana Republic?

It's up to you!
