Would you believe I got them all right? Good, cuz you’d be wrong.
Apparently Jack was forced to close comments to discourage spam on several threads. Apologies to Jack for posting a short message here for Chris regarding the article linked to at Watts Up With That.
Chris you have a point about the comparison, however when you consider the government sponsored push for green alternatives have occurred because of fraudulent information and scare tactics the cost to taxpayers for the green industrial complex becomes troubling indeed. This “investment” of government dollars fits more into the government waste category than it does private investment category.
The government did choose to create tax law for businesses that also affects oil and gas tax returns. Reporting that these are subsidies is incorrect. Gas and oil do not receive money from the government. I would bet the oil industry would gladly give up the tax credits in exchange for more reasonable regulation and taxation but things like that seem never to happen in DC.
It’s also important to note that tax revenues from gas and oil far exceed profits. Green energy can’t make that claim…not even close.
In 2005 a “windfall profits” tax was being discussed in Washington. This http://taxfoundation.org/article/oil-company-profits-and-tax-collections-does-us-need-new-windfall-profits-tax“>article from the Tax Foundation makes it clear that governments profit more from the industry that do the oil and gas companies WITHOUT all of the costs…they do nothing but collect the cash:
Oil and gas (and coal) are under attack but not because of global warming…that’s just a vehicle to gin up demand for government to “do something” through activism. The ultimate goal is to destroy world economies to usher in a world power structure and eliminate borders. The nations of the earth will not survive economically without a strong supply of energy. Wind and solar aren’t going to adequately replace oil and gas…ever!
I know that sounds fantastic but I haven’t yet heard an argument that would discredit it as untrue and I’ve seen plenty of evidence to suggest it could very well be true.
Big money guys like George Soros and Bill Clinton have positioned themselves to become the worldwide elites wielding absolute power…Obama will undoubtedly join them following his exit from the White House.
So you see the article is an important piece of the energy story, valuable for taxpayers and consumers alike.

France Train Jihadi ‘Dumbfounded’ to Be Accused of Terrorism
http://www.frontpagemag.com/fpm/259897/france-train-jihadi-dumbfounded-be-accused-robert-spencer
This is a really funny observation, but also so true: “It is a recurring and increasingly ridiculous feature of jihad terror coverage: every time a Muslim screaming “Allahu akbar” plants a bomb or opens fire on a crowd of infidels, mainstream media coverage notes that “the attacker’s motive is not known.” But now Ayoub el-Khazzani, the Muslim gunman who was overpowered by three Americans, including two Marines, on a Paris-bound train last Friday, has gone the media one better by professing to be “dumbfounded” at being accused of terrorism. But the media, not unexpectedly, is happily going along, spreading the fog of disinformation that envelops the West’s response to the jihad threat even more thickly.”
