Fast tracking backwards

The Alliance for Climate Protection's latest graphic tells the story in the starkest of terms. Wake up America, wake up!! Re-powering America hould be a no-brainer for citizens who once knew America once as the economic powerhouse that it once was. We should demand no less now. Americans were once united for the best interests of all, and now we have descended into a vicious spiral downward of greediness and distortion. The attention of Americans is being purposefully diverted from raising all boats for economic well-being to a game of torpedoing and destroying those who want prosperity for all. In the wake of this tragedy, China sails (or should I say, speeds) ahead with new energy and high speed rail. They have their eye on the prize, but we have lost that target. This is very saddening, quite sicening and most maddening. Karita M. Hummer
