Going Green

I find it somewhat odd how so many people in America are complaining that the USA is refusing to switch to greener technologies while simultaniously complaining about the high gas prices we have. Don't they see how wonderfull it is? Expensive fossile fuels will drive more people to cheaper alternatives, greener alternatives. They will finally get what they want.

The fact of life is that money runs the world. Warm fuzzy feelings toward Mother Nature do not get things done. Money does. If it becomes more economically viable for a greener technology to compete then people will go green. I'll happily hug a tree if it is cheaper for me to do so than hugging an oil barrel. I am on a budget after all.
