Energy Cuts....!?!??!?
From an article in the Christian Science Monitor from May 31, it's proven that President Bush wants to try and find a new way to power cars. Hydrogen cars, hybrid cars...you name them, he wants to try them. However, wanting to start all these energy-conserving programs is one thing..paying for them? Well, that's another.
From what Christina Kielich states in an email, "Tough choices had to be made, and we had to realign priorities." Bush's "tough choice" equaled cutting 16% of the energy program budgets next year, which ends up being $152 million. Many disappointed members of the associations, such as William Prindle, agree that "This is the worst time to be cutting these programs".
During the 1970s, another energy crisis emerged; rather than cutting programs, gasoline was cut. Many people had to get gas on selected days of the week, and many new programs to conserve energy costs were initiated. Programs like the ones from thirty years ago definitely should be reconsidered, just in case they are necessary in the future.
