GOOD: Oil Addiction
http://good.is/
If we're addicted to oil, our twelve-step program should begin with admitting that we have a problem. As the price of oil creeps higher, finding new energy sources is more important than ever. But the search for alternatives, combined with environmental disruptions, is putting new pressures on other essentials like food. There are some things that are going well in the world. Right now, the economy is not one of them.

1) Credit reform with a focus on individual accountability
with less drain on our courts and pocketbooks.
2) Auto manufacturers being required to produce passenger
cars with more than one active power plant.
3) Smart legislation to instigate conservation and natural
deposits of natural resources by limiting the ownership
cycle of cars in heavily populated areas to 5 years max.
If we can start there with making sense of our credit issues first... that would ignite the most prosperous economic expansion since Ronald Reagan.. which love em' or hate em' his not abating the core principles of our economic realities here prospered even those who worked against it.
Where I do find more reason to agree with you is that there needs to be a balanced approach to an economic plan that encompasses balanced responsibility from US automakers with respect to making passenger cars with more that one power plant, that focus would dramatically reduce consumption.
