Steel and Transportation Equals New Age Energy Inefficiency, Lightweight Super Strength Solar Cell Plastics might be the Better Choice.

I read that UCLA is involved in lightweight plastic solar energy panel research that is supposed to be easier to make then current solar energy panels. UCLA Plastic Solar Energy Research. The implications of a plastic solar cell composite are dramatic. A Low cost, lightweight yet strong material for absorbing solar energy might mean a huge reduction in the overall weight of all transportation devices.

The lower the overall weight of our transportation system, the more effective alternative energy resources become. But even more importantly, if the plastic material can be lightweight, an energy absorber, and strong, the applications become monumental. Walls, either around a property or on the side of a building, could be made out of material that actually absorbs the suns rays and converts it to another form of energy that we can use to power lightweight vehicles and buildings.

If cars and trucks can be made out strong as steel plastics that are lighter weight and also act as solar energy panels, the world energy requirements would not only shrink, but suddenly everybody would be helping to create energy. Steel in no longer the answer when it comes to our trains, trucks, buses and automobiles, it is now the number one problem.

Steel of course, is still needed, lets just not waste a lot of energy moving steel around when it is more useful to use steel for reinforcement in buildings and bridges. Buildings and bridges are heavy, and once built do not move, ergo steel makes sense. Trains, trucks, buses and automobiles move people around, ergo lightweight, strong plastic that also absorbs and converts energy makes more sense.

Unfortunately, if the planet goes with lightweight plastics to move people, steel cars would have to disappear very quickly since the two probably cannot share the road at the same time when it comes to collisions.

Reverse Money Flow from the Consumer to the Banks is the way to solve the economic crisis.

If the Banks valued the reverse flow of money from the consumer back to the bank in the form of interest free debt paydowns, the economy would even out a lot sooner. Instead, the banks and the federal reserve only seem to acknowledge the outflow of credit that is putting the consumer farther and farther behind because of the interest rate charges that eat into what a consumer can actually spend.

Credit Card Interest free debt paydowns are needed to help consumers.

it's so obvious that what helps the consumer survive actually helps the economy survive. Interest free debt paydowns have yet to be mentioned as a consumer cure all, I've been warning about this economy for the last two years.

A Christmas Song sung to the tune of Silver and Gold, Taxes and Debt, Taxes and Debt...

As time has gone on, the consumer has been beseeched with more and more taxation, and more and more consumer debt. I'm reminded of Burl Ives singing Silver and Gold, only instead of silver and gold, the line is taxes and debt.

Industrial modernization should have meant that taxation rates and consumer debt BOTH were reduced. Instead, the rich elite have used taxation and debt to accelerate economic "growth" that unfortunately has been built on a deck of cards.

Basically, we are screwed.

Now lets sing!

Taxes,
Taxes and Debt
Taxes and Debt
Taxes and Debt
The Government Fishes
For more Taxes and Debt
Have you measured
your credit worthiness?
Every newborn treasure
every newborn birth,
Taxes and Debt
Taxes and Debt
Means so much more
When we see people struggle
Taxes,
and consumer debt
under every Christmas Tree
Taxes, Taxes and Debt
Taxes, Taxes and Debt
Taxes and Debt

Taxes and Debt
Taxes and Debt
Miserly men print more cash
for the tired and old
and Mary was humbled to her knees
as the banks declared null and void
their own customers Home Equity...
It's Taxes and Debt
Taxes and Debt
suffocating the world
with their credit that binds
Taxes and Debt
how they make the customer shiver
On every Christmas night
On every Christmas night


Here is the original version,

Silver
Silver and gold
Silver and gold
Silver and gold
Ev'ryone wishes
For silver and gold
How do you measure
It's worth?
Just by the pleasure it
Gives here on Earth
Silver and gold
Silver and gold
Mean so much more
When I see
Silver
And gold decorations
On ev'ry Christmas tree
Silver, silver and gold
Silver, silver and gold
Silver and gold

Silver and gold
Silver and gold
Wise men brought gifts
To the manger I'm told
Mary was humble to see
Shepherds and kings
There on bended knees
It's silver and gold
Silver and gold
Feeling the world
With their lives
Silver and gold
How they shimmer
On ev'ry Christmas night
On ev'ry Christmas night

Silver
Silver and gold

Too much of the U.S. Economy is Tied into Cars.

When the teelevision Media decided to get in bed with the automobile industry, they ignored small business owners in other industries. When a national television show cuts to a commercial, the commercials are not localized enough. The result is primarily national brand merchandisers, and automobiles, can afford to advertise, but the smaller businesses that just want to advertise in a small radius around where their business is located, cannot.

Cable Television was supposed to help the small business owner get their chance to advertise. Yet even there, it is the local car dealership that advertises and dominates the commercial time slots! With no real back up plan in place, as less cars get sold, it seems like other smaller advertisers are not able to fill the void because they have been marginalized over the year by the same media that could now use their advertising dollars.
