Man...if only we had a technology where we could cut the ends off of tanker-cars and weld them together end-to-end so liquids could be PUMPED to their destination. Crazy, I know.
Then we could ship oil and natural gas without relying on rails and without having to pay Warren Buffet millions of dollars a day.
People are going to run out of gas. Trucks are going to run out of diesel. Plants making chemicals and fertilizer will have to shut down. People are going to get cold and hungry.
Raggedy Annie assures us that Biden has people working on it. TOP people.
TOP as in "...the dominant position...", presumably on loan from Berkshire-Hathaway Corporation (currently trading at $418,700 per share).

Yeah, and if/when those railcars full of electric car fuel (COAL!) stop rolling... a whole lotta folks are gonna be unhappy, especially if the electric generating plants are operating on 'just-in-time' mode. But I'm sure the FJB admin is gonna fix it, pronto. tic
ReplyDeleteMaybe we should ship electricity in special solar powered battery blimps from places that have more than their share of energy to the enlightened parts of the country that will use it more wisely, Yea, that's the ticket!

DeleteThe Oracle of Omaha has a tank car repair factory close to my place . It is booming . Starts out at $25 an hour . 70-80 hours a week if you can take it . Not many last very long at that pace . $2500 a week and my grand-son-in-law recently quit . No life . Nothing but work and sleep . The union as it has for many years ignores the fact that many years ago they won the 40 hour week labor war . They are bought and paid for . Union dues keep on coming as they ignore the 40 hour week . I come from an old union family . It breaks my heart to see the graft and payola running what was once a great American force for good . Mammon is the current union president . He won by a landslide .
ReplyDeleteThis country needs an energy policy that makes sense, designed by people who know what works. Not by politicians! I have lots of apples if you need any and scion wood for 20 varieties email me if you want any. Grumpy
ReplyDeletepaging Ayn Rand...something, something about dealing in favors, not goods...
Delete"Raggedy Annie".... because "Shirley Temple Black" is a bridge too far.
