As a result of her beliefs, Hillary Clinton proposed a plan to congress which creates a Strategic Energy Fund. The fund will put $50 billion into research, development, and deployment of renewable energy, energy efficiency, clean coal technology, ethanol and other homegrown biofuels, and more. She believes the funds can be accumulated without raising taxes. The funds will be raised by giving oil companies the choice between paying into the fund itself, or investing in renewable energy themselves. Oil companies would also lose all their tax breaks and pay their appropriate taxes.

The only thing Hilary Clinton believes in is herself. We do not need research from the goverment..we need action.

Affordable solar energy and wind...products us middle class can afford without losing money when we buy them.

REAL tax breaks for green houses(all products that go into them)..and again for because it is cool..but because we have a realy big problem looming up on us in the future.

Oh well she will auction off the Lincoln bedroom again and raise the money that way.

Don't y'all boo me..seems everyone has forgotten about that, the computers being damaged when they left and all the items they took saying they were gifts to them..when in fact they were gifts to the White House..thus in fact...really OUR gifts.

whew..sorry got off track there..awesome question!!!!

    she also promised in excess of 12,000 jobs when she was elected Senator in NY and if memory serves -2000 jobs were lost , her solid plans are nothing more then campaign fun and stories like her trip to Bosnia.

    sounds like Carter's ethynol plan. Gas went over a dollar a gallon to almost 2 dollars, before settling down to a dollar and change.

    Do not forget to add that she plans on, "taking the profits from the oil companies too."

    She has no plan. Just throw more money at it and make the right people rich and they go over the same cock and bull and solve nothing. How much has been done since Nixons gas lines? The best chance is now because the cost of energy has been so low that there hasn't been a reason to find any new sources. We have to force them to Drill. We have to force them to go nuclear. We even have to force people to put fans in their yards I don't care how rich you are.

    I don't know and furthermore, I don't care what that woman says she wants to do....I don't believe her, don't trust her, don't like her, don't want to hear her voice nor look at her face! In other words, I can NOT stand her! OR any of her ideas!

    Its a start and no one else is even thinking about health insurance. I thought the plan they came up with when Bill was President was a good start. So many mimic what the Republicans said without thinking about it. Other who don't have insurance problems don't care. We need to start someplace. These doctors charging 50 thousand for an operation that is necessary to continue living should be a crime. I've heard all the stories about malpractice but the government could and should step in and make certain rules about that. If people don't have enough sense to check their doctors before allowing them to put the knife to them, then they will learn a hard lesson.

    First she's got to make Congress give a damn about this, and then she'll have to make the rest of the country go along with it. Don't get me wrong; I think we ought to be doing something about global warming, but we--the government and the people--have spent so much time sitting on our asses over this thing that I don't see us changing anytime soon.

    This would affect my family directly as they are in domestic oil in many different capacities. So NO. Not too mention, that I don't feel Oil companies should have to bear the brunt of all of the countries environmental woes. And basically, I don't like politicians in general, but I hardly ever agree with anything a dempcrat proposes. I think another way can be found. this is something that would end up costing all Americans a lot of money just to get to work everyday. Gas prices are already high.

    You picked the prefect name.
    How else can any product be developed with out research. Do you believe that the oil, coal and power companies are working on new projects.
    I did get a laugh at the old " damaged computers story".
    If I remembered correctly one of the White house staffers claimed that Clinton's people glued a key down. The fact was that the Bush people didn't know what the Num Lock Key was.
    They may all be sharp Lawyers but that doesn't mean any of them knew poop about typing and PCs.

    I think ..that you pointing out that I am Krazy was just wrong..ok..you disagree with my opinion..and I read your reply which is fair though not right on the money...but you had to point out something personal..when you do that....you lose your point.

    Give your opinion..leave out the personal...

    Hillary would say anything, propose anything, do anything that she thinks it would take to convince enough people to elect her as president. She will promise anything to anybody to achieve whatever it is that enough people want to vote for her.

    She is exactly like Bill - her real beliefs are not the issue, she will only tell the public what she thinks that they want to hear on any given day.

    Hillary is promising National Health Care too but we already have national health care...its called Medicaid. Check out Charity hospital in NO and see if you want your family to go there when they are sick.Her phony promise to let the government fix the environmental problems are just as dangerous. And our rewards for this mess will be huge tax hikes to pay for them.
