No Federal energy efficiency incentives cut harmful emissions that contribute to global warming, and they allow consumers and industry to save money for other purchases, expanding the economy, creating jobs and bolstering national security. Most federal energy programs lead to no energy savings, they just provide an unfair subsidy for rich industries. The U.S. should increase funding for fusion energy programs, which explore ways of developing a source of power that would be both inexhaustible and safe. Fusion energy research is an expensive waste of taxpayer dollars with benefits that would not be reaped for several decades to come. The U.S. can reduce its reliance on fossil fuels by developing and expanding the use of wind power.
Wind power reduces the cost of electricity, creates jobs, and is good for our environment.
The cost of implementing wind energy is too high. The conversion to wind power requires an overhaul of the way electricity is created and transported, which would eliminate more jobs than wind power could create.
