It isn't where natural gas prices will be this winter or even next winter, but where the prices will be over the lifetime of the project.

One side believes prices are established by supply and demand, ... The other believes prices are the result of conspiracy, whim or production costs.
add benefit consumers corporate energy high prices proposals provide
I don't think consumers benefit from corporate welfare, and that's all that these proposals add up to. With energy prices as high as they are, we don't need to provide any incentives.
crude increase oil prices protect reduction regardless supply themselves
It's possible, but that kind of reduction doesn't protect us from supply disruption. If we don't import oil from Iran, if they removed themselves from the market, it would increase crude prices regardless of where we're getting our oil.
cars consumers deal design expectation gas government great higher job leave oil prices reduce reduction response secure wants
It's not the government's job to design automobiles. Also, there's a great deal of unrealistic expectation about what fuel-efficient cars can do. If the government really wants to secure reduction in oil consumption for cars, it should just leave gas prices alone.

To the casual observer, one of the most striking things about President Bush's State of the Union address was his wholesale adaptation of the Democratic Party's rhetoric regarding energy. Veterans on all sides of the energy debate in Washington cannot fail to detect a strong whiff of political cynicism in the air.

Timing is essential in career moves and often cultural climate can impact companies based in rural areas. For instance, someone who has grown up in Manhattan who loves the theater, opera, and New York Yankees might have a hard time picturing themselves in a small city atmosphere.

What I am asking, I guess, is do you intend to work on it?
economic energy expect failed produce provide reason
If those technologies have economic merit, no subsidy is necessary. If they don't, no subsidy will provide it. Those subsidies have failed to produce economic energy in the past, and there is little reason to expect that they will do so in the future.
