I don't like the idea that I have to search hard to find "Made in USA" on my FOOD.<BR/><BR/>So, I'd like to see the government offering incentives for a LOT of American industry - not just fuel and "green" stuff. What good will going "green" do us if we all die from the cheap crap produced in China? Seriously - the talapia I used to buy that was originally from ALASKA now says "Product of China" on the package.<BR/><BR/>We are such a nation of extremists. Can't we be BALANCED? Can't we be kind to the environment and feed & support our own people TOO???<BR/><BR/>I don't know about you but I'm not happy about imported foods because our farmers are now growing fuel.<BR/><BR/>This is probably more than slightly off topic and I apologize for my rant, but I'm a big HATER of "Popular Bandwagons" and in particular ones that are politically motivated and probably hollow at the core. Great, grow corn for fuel - but let's have some of it to eat, too, okay?Karen Rice, Northeast PAhttp://www.pikewaynepablog.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3308034272015481679.post-31259162279259533352008-04-04T12:37:00.000-05:002008-04-04T12:37:00.000-05:00As far as the government incentives deals: I think the gov doesn't want all of our energy costs to come from places like Russia, Venzuela, and Arabia, when we can make a good amount of our own energy here. Energy that won't run out or emit large amounts of carbon. Gov has a responsibility to its taxpayers to help them create the best way to gain an international trade advantage. Even if the gov didn't offer incentives, the incentives of eco conscious consumers would be enough to make green collar jobs a success. Thank you for letting me comment.<BR/><BR/>Sean<BR/>http://www.greencollareconomy.comSeanhttp://www.greencollareconomy.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3308034272015481679.post-27300391262090701792008-04-04T01:02:00.000-05:002008-04-04T01:02:00.000-05:00Yes!
