> We’ll bring our troops home, whether Bush likes it or not

Dear EDITORIAL:
I liked your comments, especially, "there’s money to be made...." You are dead on target. Remember that sociopaths have no conscience. It is useless to try logic and reason. They have contaminated the minds of usually reasonable men and women, especially Republicans, given the priciples of group contagion. Now if money and power (see rule the world) are the ends, and Macchiavelli is the coach, the only way to stop this insanity is to cut off the source of the money and power.
Therefore, methinks there are two ways to slay the dragon:
1. Global boycott of oil. An organized, coordinated, concerted effort, with millions of individuals
AND reasonable, wealthy corporate ceo’s in enlightened companies who can take a stand and
who can have a direct and immediate economic impact on this world menace.
2. Immediate, massive increases in federal funding for expansion of, and development of new,
renewable energy resources.
If a boycott is to be successful (see Rosa Parks), there will have to be sacrifices made on our parts. But I would willing to leave my house earlier in order to use public transportation to get to and from work. Or carpool. Or work at home, you get my drift.
Once the economic impact is felt, then the chances of developing/expanding renewable resources would be better. If this doesn’t work, then we should not pay our taxes come next April 15th. What would they do? Arrest 10 million people?

Thanks for letting me vent. Feels better.
