Analogy time: So if I invented a new type of drill that never worn down, dispersed heat so efficiently that it could be used forever to drill into just about anything, and is infinitely better than any other drill. Then I shouldn't be allowed to sell it because other drill makers have spent a lot of time, money and effort investing into developing their drills and a move away would cost them money? Boo fucking hoo... The eventuality of modern cleaner energies is that they will be cheaper and friendlier to the environment, the eventuality is that they will be developed to be much more effective and superior than oil, if the oil companies can't handle the change then they should move on like sore losers. Changing away from fossil fuels is only a waste of money and effort for the people that refuse to embrace the new technologies that are forcing fossil fuels into redundancy. |
lol, your analogy is rubbish. No one is against the super drill if it was already invented. The problem is that the government and lobby groups are working against the guys with the old drills, claiming them to be dangerous without proof. Plus, out of paranoid fear of the old drills they are stealing tax payers money to push the development of the super drill before the technology and market has matured naturally for such a drill to come out by traditional market supply & demand mechanisms.
