But Calzada's report concludes that they often are temporary and have received $752,000 to $800,000 each in subsidies -- wind industry jobs cost even more, $1.4 million each. And each new job entails the loss of 2.2 other jobs that are either lost or not created in other industries because of the political allocation of capital. Calzada says the creation of jobs in alternative energy has subtracted about 110,000 jobs from elsewhere in Spain's economy.

George Will???

here's a question for you. do you think spending govt money on body
armor, MRAPS and Predator drones - creates jobs?

do you think when they build anti-pollution equipment for coal-powered
plants and municipal wastewater treatment plants - provides jobs?

Would you agree that in both examples given that jobs are produced -
by spending money we don't have?

We should do what we have to, not what every extremist in the country
can think up.

The ozone hole had a doable cure, that wasn't designed to bankrupt the
free world.

Global warming is different in that the proponents will not discuss
their work, publish their research or debate the topic. They lie
their asses off to convince people that there is a consensus of
scientific opinion where there is not. Their approach of attacking
CO2 is doomed to failure and they know it, and they abhor
geo-engineering approaches that short-circuit their preferred,
impossibly-expensive approach of reducing CO2.

Proper scientific research is published with full information required
to allow independent researchers to duplicate your lab results. But
that isn't how the global warming proponents do things. They've even
claimed to have lost the original temperature data by erasing the
magnetic tapes it was on.

The whole thing stinks to high heaven in the halls of science. It's
great for a circus sideshow, but we shouldn't be spending more than
about $5 to get in and look, certainly not $50 TRILLION that we don't
have by the year 2050 to attack it.

We should attempt to adapt to it, or we should attempt to geo-engineer
the solution cheaply. If it turns out to be real, which is a very
valid question all by itself, we'll either adapt or we won't, or be
succesful with geoengineering or we won't. But we will NOT be
successful with $50 Trillion pipe dreams over the next 40 years. We
don't have the money and won't have the money. And if America tries
to do something along this line, we'll look around and find ourselves
the only ones, and the Chinese will still be digging coal and so will
the Indians.

So, how many people should die from pollution?

is the Ozone hole fixed?
