Too bad we make very little in this country any more -- and too bad the greed of wanting cheap products drove most of our manufacturing to China. Oh, sorry, I almost forgot. We need those cheap products because no one here has a decent paying job any more and therefore can only afford "cheap". Cheap products are not a bad thing in and of themselves. Remember that Japanese products were also cheap. Not so much any more. Industrializing a nation requires certain steps. Cheap manufactured goods is only an early step. But there are a lot better ways to generate power than coal. Geothermal, being among the cleanest. Even thorium nuclear is a better option. Clean, plentiful, scalable pursuant to demand, self regulating reaction, and apolitical, in that it can't be used to create weapons. Something we should have long begun here. |
