Energy Independence and Robin Hayes

The following is a letter I sent Congressman Robin Hayes today.  He sent out a letter assuring his constituents that he "felt our pain at the pumps".  I highly doubt that, considering the $75,250 he received from "Energy Concerns" for his 2006 election.

Dear Robin Hayes:

While we need to become more energy independent we do NOT need to spend money improving the oil refineries, that will only tie us to oil longer. It's a waste of time and money.

Again, putting money into domestic oil and natural gas exploration will do the same.  A waste of time and money.

Turning coal into gas, It's still a fossil fuel, and will run out.  A waste of time and money.

Ethanol, while not a fossil fuel, it's little more than a stop gap measure.  A waste of time and money.

Expansion of Nuclear energy.  Now we have something.  While fission is here today, and we do need a few more reactors running to get us along for now. We MUST put money into nuclear FUSION.  This is the only near term solution for energy we should be concentrating on.  It's clean, it's renewable...It's our future.

This is where we MUST put our time and money.  Anything less would be... you got it!  A waste of time and money!

Thank you!
