		<description><![CDATA[What if....

There was a company with the most productive renewable energy technology available today, where the &quot;far outside the box&quot; thought processes that created that system had been turned to analyze the political, business and social environments?

What if....

The results of that analysis indicated that every currently applied financial model was a mis-application at best, and a completely new, industry specific financial model was one of two primary impediments indicated to the &quot;Lindburgh Event&quot; needed by the renewable energy sector for demand for immediate adoption to increase sharply?

Who creates such financial models? 

Can a financial model for the initiation and build-out of a decentralized biofuel production mechanism be created at all?

Or, as I suspect, doing so on one&#039;s own initiative is either too ppvisionary, or simply so overly complicated that out of 350 million Americans, NOBODY has both the knowledge as well as the sense of the need for such a thing?

Another possibility is that collectively, Americans are too busy tweeting about nothing, playing video games on the XboX, or updating Facebook to put away childish things, and stop being lazy children.

From inside the industry, the technology exists today. I have personally walked up to it and touched it. It exists today. 

However, the Obama Administration has demonstrated the desire to work only with those whose ethics allow purchasing their influence. Apparently President Obama has decided that because the technologies that can already run the race and win do not belong to those buying his influence, somehow inadequate technology magically becomes adequate. But, not until the Oval Office receives the appropriate downpayment. 

......and BHO wants 4 more years.........]]></description>
