I know, I know the word protectionism isn't the proper word to describe what I am going to talk about, but it sounds right to me. I was reared as a genuine country boy and I can only express myself using country logic and common sense and if my English isn't the most proper, please forgive me, I didn't do well in English class. My classroom from kindergarten up to the fifth grade was spent in a one room school house with one teacher, who taught up to the twelfth grade all in one large room. And without a doubt had her hands full, talk about chaos trying to keep a half a hundred kids in line.
Looking at most of the major news stations and listening to all the rhetoricians, you know our elite leaders in Washington that study the art of spinning. Well anyway all I hear about most everyday is how to solve the oil production problem. The complete focus and recommendations of our leaders as far as oil is concerned is to drill off shore, drill in land preserves, get the Arab countries to pump up their production, in other words folks we need to protect the oil magnates, I prefer calling them what they are, "oil maggots." Parasites feeding off the victims of the high gas prices, which all of us are victims, unless of course you own shares in the oil industry.
Now some of our leaders in D.C. want to push for hybrid automobiles, and all kinds of programs such as a tax holiday from the gasoline tax, you know another Band-Aid approach. As you know the price of gas has gone up every year during the summer vacation season, you know it's a tradition in the oil industry, could it be the ole "let's sock it to them while there's millions of cars on the road syndrome," or "let's make money while the sun shines theory." No, no, no, our government would never allow that, would they?
So if they take the tax on gas away (temporally) and the price of gas goes up, keeping with the tradition of the oil maggots, what will the average Joe be saving, probably nothing? Oh no not another spin, our guys and gals in Washington wouldn't do that, or would they?
Why in the world isn't anyone talking about Hydrogen as fuel to run our cars and trucks, also home heating furnaces, industrial equipment and all the other necessary applications in our everyday lives? Well folks I will tell you why and you can take this to the bank! The reason is that Hydrogen used as fuel is FREE. That's right it doesn't cost you a dime and it is one of the most abundant elements in the entire universe. Oh, and lets not forget this, it doesn't give off any toxic emissions what so ever, so therefore it benefits every living soul on earth.
The key word here is FREE. Do you think for one minute the oil industry will give their blessing for this type of fuel, of course not and if I was an oil maggot, which I thank God I am not, maybe I wouldn't either. It's the ole GREED factor, how many industries or companies do you know that that greed is their creed. Hey that rhymes greed and creed, maybe I will design a slogan for these guys, and they can flaunt their greed, it doesn't seem to bother them, everyone knows their greedy, including themselves, although maybe sociopaths refuse to admit it.
Anyway this type of technology, hydrogen as fuel, is going to eat into the profits of the oil industry and to a monumental degree and it's already starting even though it is in its infancy. It started at the grassroots level and is spreading like wild fire. One thing about Americans when it comes to ingenuity, no one out performs us and if the elite politicians in D.C. had the cojones to stand up to the oil industry giants maybe, just maybe, some of them might talk about the only logical alternative fuel, which is hydrogen.
It will not only greatly reduce our reliance on gasoline by 50% to 60% it will have a profound positive outcome on the global warming epidemic on our planet. It's a win, win situation for all involved. The oil industry won't totally lose their market of victimized consumers (we would only be 50% victimized) and the planet will be refreshed, and our pockets once again filled with the money we would save on the immoral prices on gasoline.
Now I will tell you my opinion of why our illustrious leaders will never plug this concept to anyone. No I take that back, I think there are two that have enough cojones, Ron Paul and Obama. Obama spoke about eliminating lobbyists in Washington, which would take real cojones, and that's the first step to force our representatives to be responsible to who elected them in the first place. Big business lobbyists spend over 3 billion dollars a year, and where does that go, you be the judge. Funny isn't it that it is illegal for merchandise and product buyers of private or public companies to take anything or accept any favors from vendors they purchase from, but lobbyists are legal and for what purpose? Could it be that are representatives are accepting favors from lobbyists? Where is all of the 3 billion dollars a year going, for lunches, I don't think so, although food is quite expensive in D.C., yeah right.
Well folks, that's why I selected the word protectionism, which if you think about it, its logical in the sense that it describes our representatives tactics of protecting big business, and not us?
You can do something on your own to kick the gas habit by 50% to 60% and it's by getting a conversion kit for your car or truck. This type of hydrogen technology has been around for many decades but it has been down played or kept completely secret because of obvious reasons, the threat on the oil industry, first as I mentioned before it's free fuel. The second very important reason is that ruffling the feathers of the oil industry will greatly affect our elected officials and also the news media company's ability to sell lots of spots on TV, full page ads in magazines and newspapers. Isn't it wonderful how these institutional ads flaunt how compassionate the oil industry giants are toward our dilemma, you notice I said "our dilemma" it almost like they are accusing us of causing the quandary, .and folks, the beat goes on, or should I say the spin.
