What are all these "green jobs" that will stimulate us?

Mowing people's lawns with a pair of scissors? Riding a bike to the unemployment line? Who is going to be paying this "energy tax"? Donovan, how exactly is wind power stored? What about all the Greenies that don't want solar panels in the desert because it might piss off the "habitats"?

1. Working on Wind and Solar power lines.... Making room for more businesses.... Life isn't about your money. You are going to have to pay taxes either way. So you'd be complaining either way. Therefore, there is nothing in this world that would make you happy besides being sent to Hell.
2. Right now, we export jobs to the Mid-east, Alberta, and Russia to extract our oil and produce energy. What if we had jobs that could not be outsourced producing our own power, how many would that employ? 100, 000. Building windmills, dams, nuclear power plants, designing a smart grid, solving challenges, maintaining our energy sources etc. And most importantly, we have to redesign our cities, our habits. Ride your bike short distances. Long distances, use the metro. Wait my city doesn't have a metro. A private company could operate and build one, it just needs a loan. It just needs a competitive advantage vs. haliburton and Saudi Arabia, what about a tax?
3. They aren't posted in the paper or online yet in my area. Maybe it will take 5 to 10 years for them to show up.
4. more jobs via obama? Ha, anybody that falls for that one is a grade A moron, unless they have down-syndrome, then it's not there fault.

Businesses would have to retrofit their operations. That will cost money. They will pass that cost onto consumers." Senator Barack Obama Speaking on Cap and Trade San Francisco Chronicle January 17, 2008 It has nothing to do with global warming,as that has been debunked. Its all about taxes and getting even with america. Lower the standard of living and spread the wealth.
6. I've been asking the same question. What are the green jobs? How many green jobs? Where will they be located? How many people will these jobs employ? Will a person need a certain college degree to get a green job? What is the longevity of these green jobs?
7. 'Stimulate us'? Naughty boy!
