We call that a trade, not an investment. Are you trying to time the market now? "Future Fuel" is a no hit on Yahoo Finance. OK you tell me, what is the ticker symbol. Yeah, that's what I'd use as a barometer, Yahoo Finance..... right. Which electric car company would you invest in? Daimler Benz. That is not an electric car company. It is a company that may put out a boutique electric car for millionaires to play with. You do know this is loogie, right? Making up things like investments and such as the conversation warrants??? Just sayin'... |

Another silly scared of technology argument. What technology argument. There is no argument about how electricity is produced, how electricity is distributed nor any argument about how electricity is consumed. The argument is that the electric cars of today are no more efficient and cost effective than the electric cars of 100 years ago. |

Bad investor. Really? Every automobile manufacturer that sells cars in the U.S. is working VERY hard on electric vehicles. Yeah, they are working even harder trying to get people to actually buy those cars. When they take away the $8000 government bribe the sales will go flat. This article was from 2010, but similar article today eith same numbers in my trivalleyherald times. http://money.cnn.com/2010/03/30/auto...cing/index.htm You like sending those rich people a government subsidy? Is not the poor buying electric cars new. |

I am really amazed at the left's fascination with alternate energy schemes that use massive government subsidies to make them attractive. This is the quintessential welfare for the rich at the expense of the poor. Do you mean like the oil industry? Or our current electric generating facilities? They are subsidized you know.... The alternate energy subsidies are 10 to 20 times the subsidy for oil and gas, (per KWH produced) depending on which you are talking about. In gross numbers nuclear gets many times more money than oil and gas. I notice you haven't answered about which alternate energy scheme YOU have bought into with your own money. (other than that which was taken without your permission by the government) .. Loogy invest in alternative energy? He doesn't have the where with all. Snerk. He says he is moving non performing assets in to electric cars, etc. No wonder he has non performing assets. Bad investor. Really? Every automobile manufacturer that sells cars in the U.S. is working VERY hard on electric vehicles. Sure they are. Government requirement. How much ROI in those electric car companies? There is NO government requirement to produce electric cars, that is a lie. You want to stay out of trouble with the government, you better be working on electric cars. |

That tiny solar array won't even run the A/C for a 4500 sq/ft house. You can pay a lot of electric bills for the half million extra this house costs over the garden variety megabuck Rutenburg house. You fail to get the point, and the rest of the article. "Two weeks ago, he bought land for the first Zero Energy America Village, a prototype community just south of the Pinellas-Pasco border on East Lake Road. The project will feature 1,600- to 1,800-square-foot homes with a target price of $250,000. "They will be amazingly healthy, totally green, and the homeowner will have no electric bills," said Rutenberg. "The village will be the proudest moment of our company to date." Considering a 1600 sq/ft house is going for less than $200k up there in cow country if it is a real nice one (granite and hardwood kitchen sort of thing) it is still putting $150k down against future electric bills. Are you saying that a 1600 square foot home outside of Tampa is going for $50k???? Are you nuts? http://www.realtor.com/soldhomeprice...rice-na-100000 I am still waiting for someone to tell me what the maintenance costs are and how well these collectors hold up to being hit by lightning, 100 MPH winds and flying debris. I am still thinking about doing it myself but as long as this is a high 5 figure or 6 figure investment, I can't make financial sense out of it. Yes, you and other right wingers have shown your disdain for anything innovative and on the technological forefront. Innovation has to have a pay-off. Immediately? You do realize that most innovation is at first, not financially feasible don't you? Do you think Orville and Wilbur's plane on Kitty Hawk was immediately a financial success? Henry Ford's car? Who was funding Orville and Wilbur? It wasn't the government. Who was funding Ford? It wasn't the government. Ford was noted for designing an assembly line, not for car design. And I don't think the government financed him. He was a great businessman. Example, he even got money for his wood waste. Kingsford was his brother in law. |
