    In 2013, energy sources and percent share of total electricity generation were

    Coal 39%
    Natural Gas 27%
    Nuclear 19%
    Hydropower 7%
    Other Renewable 6%
    Biomass 1.48%
    Geothermal 0.41%
    Solar 0.23%
    Wind 4.13%
    Petroleum 1%
    Other Gases < 1%

    Solar: 0.23% Less than 1/4 of 1 percent.
    Hi AYH,
    Hydro and wind are also "Green" energy, but I get your point. I would argue that Solar while slow to be adopted by the US, is thriving in other countries such as Germany where for the first time about 2 weeks ago, Solar provided 51% of the electricity needed for the entire country. And even more interesting, more than 50% of Germany's renewable energy is owned by its citizens & farmers: http://www.treehugger.com/renewable-...companies.html which is something I did not know before. That's pretty cool!

        Your Germany stats are cool. I'm all for EVERYBODY using solar power (and wind) as much as possible for their homes.

        BUT...as usual, your stats are cherry picked.

        This is the reality:
        "Germany is the world's top photovoltaics (PV) installer, with a solar PV capacity of 35.948 gigawatts (GW) at the end of 2013 and a supported capacity of 36.519 GW at the end of May 2014.
        The German new solar PV installations increased by about 7.6 GW in 2012, and solar PV provided 18 TWh (billion kilowatt-hours) of electricity in 2011, about 3% of total electricity.
        Some market analysts expect this could reach 25 percent by 2050.[4] Germany has a goal of producing 35% of electricity from renewable sources by 2020 and 100% by 2050."

        COULD reach 15% by the year 2050 and currently only provide 3% of the TOTAL electricity used in Germany.
        That sucks. And Germany is number one in the world.

        It's not a case of them being "ahead" of us by the way. The technology is all the same.

        It's just that Pres. Obama's administration just flat out GAVE solar companies money to do NOTHING.
        Seems to me that money should have been used to HIRE them to install solar panels on every home in America.

        But that wouldn't have made 100% profit going into people's pockets now would it?

            Debating which political party or President is this or that is EXACTLY what "they" want people to do. Because the reality is this: It doesn't matter if Obama or Bush or Clinton or any President since perhaps Eisenhower (or Kennedy, and look what happened to him) is Republican OR Democrat. It's 'Good Cop/Bad Cop', and we the sheeple fall for it every time and worse, contribute to it and keep it alive by pitting R's vs. D's. Again, this is exactly what "they" want.

            But whether it's the Middle East or Nebraska, people will get their dander up over this politician or that one. Meanwhile, the real business of America is getting done behind the scenes but often out in the open unnoticed because everyone is distracted by arguing who's worse, Obama or Bush.

            What-the-fuck-ever, as my girlfriend would say. Carry on.

                    Keeping taxes as low as possible is their bread and butter. All roads lead back to that one prime directive when it comes to their ideology.

                            How about this.... temperatures have always been fluctuating, and often much warmer than now.... but we only hit big CO2 production in the last 110 years or so.



                            And then here is the anomaly between pretty much EVERY COMPUTER MODEL of the climate that we are basing all this "settled science"on, and the actual observations....





                            But yes, all of this right vrs left crap is simply distracting everyone from the fact that BOTH sides are growing the power of the government and their personal fiefdoms, creating a political elite class that has the only legal power to use force to control pretty much everything; and BOTH sides are paying off their friends with money stolen from the people through taxes, inflation and borrowing.

                                Where do you get that ridiculous idea that rich pay less taxes? Rich pay MORE taxes. They are punished for being quality members of society, working hard/smart and earning more. Thanks to the leftist loser mentality mongers (punish harder working, give away and encourage less/lazy working crowd).

                                    Obama inherited the problem from Bush (a rightie), and today the righties in congress stop Obama from making the changes required to fix the problem. You got this wrong, so that is 3 wrong things said or done by people on the right.

                                            It's because these fools do nothing but talk out of their asses, they have no idea how things actually work in the real world. They want "the rich" to pay a higher percent even though the rich has always paid in more and been carrying everyone else on their backs.

                                            Only fair way I see to do it would be to get rid of all taxes other than sales tax. jack it up and split it between the state and government. Who ever spends more will be paying more.

                                                Seems to me that money should have been used to HIRE them to install solar panels on every home in America.

                                                But that wouldn't have made 100% profit going into people's pockets now would it?
                                                Robbie you have it wrong. China is going full force building solar panels and other green energies. The Obama administration provided assistance to companies like Solyndra to help improve the technology to and to hopefully beat China. Why should America or any other country buy solar panels from China when it could have been built right here at home, and create more high tech jobs in addition to the installation jobs?

                                                You should also know that Solyndra was back by the Walton Family (Owners of Walmart, and conservatives themselves). Their loan was guaranteed by the Department of Energy, which itself came from GEORGE W BUSH (Surprise! He did something that was good).

                                                When the economy tanked, some solar companies including Solyndra just could not compete with the subsidized companies in China and went bankrupt.

                                                But instead of explaining even the most basic bits of the truth, the right wingers blame obama, and call green energy a failure.

                                                The amount of complete bullshit spewed by right wingers in office, and in the media, and even here on GFY, is both troubling and sad.

                                                    Taxes are based on percentages. If you pay a lower percentage than the next guy, that means you pay less taxes than that guy. It has nothing to do with one number being larger than the other until you talk tax rate, which is expressed as a percentage.

                                                            Big O doesn't give a damn about Congress. He rules by decree with his mighty pen.
                                                            "Fix the problem"? Obama has done nothing but CREATE more problems.
                                                            Are you going to blame Bush for this shit too? Over 1 million food stamps distributed to dead people in Louisiana

                                                            - More than a million dollars in food stamps have been distributed to dead people in Louisiana according to a state audit.

                                                            The audit shows nearly 4,000 households received food stamps where the primary recipient was dead.

                                                            From July 2009 to June 2013 the amount of benefits sent to the deceased reached nearly $1.3-million.

                                                            Officials say it's hard to know exactly who was using the program's cards after the owners were dead.

                                                            "On the DCFS funds, the SNAP benefits, you're not going to recover those funds," said Louisiana Legislative Auditor Daryl Purpera.

                                                            "So, that's just taxpayer money that's gone?" he was asked.

                                                            "Yeah. That's... those are federal funds, taxpayer funds that we'll not be able to recover," said Purpera.


                                                            These same dead people probably voted while dead also.
                                                            So we have no problem feeding dead people, and now Big O wants over $3 billion for illegal aliens, while we have American veterans, put on DHS terrorist watch lists, wandering homeless and hungry and dying in the streets.

I'm not saying that it's right, I'm not saying it's a worthy excuse (see above,) but at least acknowledge the fact that the President fucked them and they are sore losers. Sore losers do not like hugging the guy that just fucked them. That is just human behavior, that is just politics. That the President did not see it coming is absolutely mind-boggling, shortsighted, and naive.

The important ice is the thick stuff and that is melting away at record pace. It's very easy to learn what the difference is in fresh new ice (ie thin ice) vs the stuff that has been there for thousands of years.

Science has nothing to do with politics and all to do with proof. People who mix the two do not do their arguments any favours and I'm quite sure that you'll find right wingers who think there is global warming due to humans and left wingers who think that global warming is just a misinterpretation of the facts.

So how much of a stretch would some website with the words "free" and "patriot" make with the truth? You can't post stuff from crackpot websites and expect to be making some kind of valid point. Those websites are for kooks.

Do you know the kind of shit large chemical companies wish they could get away with? They don't give a shit about the health of you or your family. They only care about doing whatever helps their bottom line.

No finger pointing and baiting into arguments. Does that ever happen on FOX?

Everything out of those MSM "news" sources is propaganda and lies. It is manipulation and conditioning. The best thing you could do for yourself would be to stop watching it immediately. This goes for FOX "News" too.

                                                                                                        So it's a "wash". But Mark Prince won't see that. He will believe wholeheartedly what the govt. wants him to believe.

                                                                                                        The only good that comes from crockett's obvious trolling posts is that MAYBE one or two rational people reading this will see the utter hypocrisy of both sides and realize that playing "team sports" with politics is what Republicans and Democrats want us to do.

                                                                                                        It ensures the power of the two-party system and keeps them in office indefinitely.

                                                                                                            I just listened to an interview with a Republican candidate Sunday by an mSNBC anchor...and there was an actual discussion about Republican politics. No finger pointing and baiting into arguments. Does that ever happen on FOX?

                                                                                                            If you don't know the difference between MSNBC and those stupid websites, then there's no sense in even trying to have a discussion with you.
                                                                                                            I was watching fox during the elections, I was sick of it being one sided, tried to watch MSNBC and was shocked to see that they were even much worse than Fox. You don't have to lie straight out, Covering only parts of the story that you want and ignoring other things is just as bad and pretty much the same thing as lying. So I tried CNN which I thought was neutral only to find out they were doing the same thing. I give up, and don't believe much anything from media.

                                                                                                                So it's a "wash". But Mark Prince won't see that. He will believe wholeheartedly what the govt. wants him to believe.

                                                                                                                The only good that comes from crockett's obvious trolling posts like these is that MAYBE one or two rational people reading this will see the utter hypocrisy of both sides and realize that playing "team sports" with politics is what Republicans and Democrats want us to do.

                                                                                                                It ensures the power of the two-party system and keeps them in office indefinitely.

These are unlike opinion and slant, and can be found and confirmed in numerous places. The idea is to do your own research and find the truth. Not get hung up on "Ra! Ra! Go team!" and rely on what some talking head is spinning with opinion & script on any given Tuesday.

If you pay a lower percentage than the next guy, that means you pay less taxes than that guy. It has nothing to do with one number being larger than the other until you talk tax rate, which is expressed as a percentage.

                                                                                                                    Example (numbers may be not correct, just for illustration purposes):

                                                                                                                    Earn 30.000, pay 10% income tax (3000).
                                                                                                                    Earn 300.000, pay 33% income tax ( 99.000).

                                                                                                                    So both 33% > 10% and 99.000 > 3000

                                                                                                                    So not sure what were you trying to say.

                                                                                                                    While what I was trying to say is clear - rich already pay WAAAAAAAAAYYYYYY more. They are being punished for being hard/smart working. Not punished, but more likely raped in taxes.

                                                                                                                    Even if that 300.000 guy would have 10% instead of 33% rate he would still pay WAY more than that 30.000 guy. Yet it is not enough, they jacked it up to 33%. And left winger morons still claim it is not enough.
                                                                                                                    Fucking disgrace.

Shortly thereafter all the republicans decided to leave the now-poluted-beyond-tolerance-levels Earth and start their own new planet named Conmerica. The dems followed suit and founded their own planet and named it Demerica. Surely everyone would be happy now that everyone on each new world is of the same mind politically, no?

                                                                                                                        Within 50 years both planets suffered brutal civil wars. Why? Because even with no one to argue with, the fact is people are people. Our need for conflict and strife and bitching about government supercedes our need for peace and cooperation and desire for a free and happy life. If we can't fight over differing politically we'll fight those who have different religious beliefs.

                                                                                                                        New planets were colonized. On this one only those who are baptist righties who oppose abortion will live there. On this other planet only lefty hedonists who support universal health care and a free monthly pot allowance for everyone are welcome. And guess what? Within 20 years wars broke out on all those planets. Over this, over that, over nothing.

                                                                                                                        Because let's face it, we humans are assholes.

                                                                                                                        Face it, the USA has two whole other churches these days. Two whole other religions. The church of Dem, and the church of Con. You're raised to ascribe to one or the other, most simply growing up to regurgitate all the BS their parents fed them over the years. You join your 'church', you give your tithes (and then some), you worship your church-party leaders, and every 4 years you renew your vows.

                                                                                                                        Fact is you're all a little bit right, and a whole lot of wrong. Hmm... if only the two sides could, oh I don't know, somehow join forces and work together for the common good. Then that would mean you'd be collectively a whole lot more right and a whole lot less wrong, no? Of course it would. Instead we have American men and women right now on match.com putting statements in their profiles like "If you are a Dem then don't bother contacting me".... "If you're a Repub then don't bother contacting me".

Shortly thereafter all the republicans decided to leave the now-poluted-beyond-tolerance-levels Earth and start their own new planet named Conmerica. The dems followed suit and founded their own planet and named it Demerica. Surely everyone would be happy now that everyone on each new world is of the same mind politically, no?

                                                                                                                            Within 50 years both planets suffered brutal civil wars. Why? Because even with no one to argue with, the fact is people are people. Our need for conflict and strife and bitching about government supercedes our need for peace and cooperation and desire for a free and happy life. If we can't fight over differing politically we'll fight those who have different religious beliefs.

                                                                                                                            New planets were colonized. On this one only those who are baptist righties who oppose abortion will live there. On this other planet only lefty hedonists who support universal health care and a free monthly pot allowance for everyone are welcome. And guess what? Within 20 years wars broke out on all those planets. Over this, over that, over nothing.

                                                                                                                            Because let's face it, we humans are assholes.

Two whole other religions. The church of Dem, and the church of Con. You're raised to ascribe to one or the other, most simply growing up to regurgitate all the BS their parents fed them over the years. You join your 'church', you give your tithes (and then some), you worship your church-party leaders, and every 4 years you renew your vows.

Hmm... if only the two sides could, oh I don't know, somehow join forces and work together for the common good.

Rich pay MORE taxes. They are punished for being quality members of society, working hard/smart and earning more. Thanks to the leftist loser mentality mongers (punish harder working, give away and encourage less/lazy working crowd).

If you pay a lower percentage than the next guy, that means you pay less taxes than that guy. It has nothing to do with one number being larger than the other until you talk tax rate, which is expressed as a percentage.

He was referring to NOT having the country run by the "progressive" types who never question the govt. and have no sense of self-responsibility.

He was referring to NOT having the country run by the "progressive" types who never question the govt. and have no sense of self-responsibility.

                                                                                                                                                        I'm pretty sure that people in Iran fall in line with the govt. and obey them...just like modern day "liberals" do here in the U.S.
                                                                                                                                                        That doesn't mean that liberals would fit in with Iran. Just like it doesn't mean that "conservatives" would either.

Or at least we're not supposed to. Seems the government doesn't really care about that rule as belief in evolution is forced on kids in schools.

                                                                                                                                                                "hell is full of good wishes and desires" apparently is the first documented version.

                                                                                                                                                                you say your country doesn't rule by religious doctrine.. but, there seems to be a great deal of political, national discourse on gay marriage. as a conservative, are you able to explain satisfactorily why a group who trumpets personal freedom and small government, would be so interested in deciding peoples religious futures?

                                                                                                                                                                it's an unfair thing to ask, especially considering just how many times 'democrats' and 'republicans' have switched their platforms on the basis of what 'the masses want'.

                                                                                                                                                                    They don't. The majority of them back their govt. and do what they are told like sheep.

                                                                                                                                                                    When a countrie's people actually rise up against the govt. ON THEIR OWN (without the U.S. meddling), then shit happens. (just like when our founding fathers rose up against the most powerful military on Earth in 1776).

                                                                                                                                                                    Not sure why or how you come up with some of your ideas...but I love ya anyway. lol

I'm opposed to the inevitable persecution if someone doesn't "agree" with it. I am opposed to forcing a business to cater to someone they don't want to for ANY reason of their choosing. I am opposed to brainwashing children into thinking that deviant behavior is normal.

Excuses are bull shit. You either do it or you don't. Real men don't say "but mommy, it was hard!" or "they won't play with me!"

I'm not saying that it's right, I'm not saying it's a worthy excuse (see above,) but at least acknowledge the fact that the President fucked them and they are sore losers. Sore losers do not like hugging the guy that just fucked them. That is just human behavior, that is just politics. That the President did not see it coming is absolutely mind-boggling, shortsighted, and naive.

ON THEIR OWN (without the U.S. meddling), then shit happens. (just like when our founding fathers rose up against the most powerful military on Earth in 1776).

However, considering the link i posted to BP and what it was doing while it was known as 'Anglo-Persian Oil Company', i think it will be some time before real change is visible.

That's what we do when we need to change the subject because we know the other person is right. It's nice to see that you agree Obama fucked himself by inciting the Tea Party to overthrow the traditional Republicans, totally killing any possibility of "working together." And who are we kidding, he doesn't want to "work together" anyway, he wants things done his way. Not that I blame him, he is the President after all.

Democrats are considered left, Republicans are considered right. If you want to play some political spectrum bull shit game that somehow places Bill Clinton to the right of George W. and George Sr, have at it.

There's really no in-between. You are either free, or you are not. There are no degrees of freedom.
                                                                                                                                                                                            I suppose the question then becomes: will you feel 'more free' if a conservative takes the oath of office in 2016?

                                                                                                                                                                                            Because if that happens I'm pretty sure all those in the church of Dems will feel 'less free'.

                                                                                                                                                                                            That's one of the most curious things about politics I've noticed, is that no matter which of the two 'churches' you worship at, Dem or Con, every member is convinced that all is right with the world when their party is IN, and all is wrong with the world when the other party is IN.

                                                                                                                                                                                            Both sides utterly convinced that all of their party's policies and proposals are 100% right, and the other sides are 100% wrong.
