"The National Research Council said that the total cost of deploying a national hydrogen network could be as high as $200 billion, including $55 billion in government aid through 2023. Some experts, like Mr. Hwang, expect the cost to be more than twice that.
In fact, given the uncertainties about which fuels will emerge as real alternatives to oil, energy executives still appear extremely cautions about hydrogen."
According to this article, by spending $200 billion or worst case $400 billion, it could change American transportation from oil depend to clean energy source with no carbon emission, and the goverment is hesitating to provide aids to fuel companies.
Instead the US goverment is going to splash out $700 billion to save the greedy wall street, to save the jobs of rediculously paid executives and to make sure some private 'donations' are available to the politicans.
They may argue that if the US financial industry collaps then it will have a profound influence on the whole world economy, but if spending $700 billion can only exchange for the hope that the crisis will end, to hope that the world will return to good old normal, so that the executives will continue to get paid and the initiative of fighting global warming remain slow, it is blatant for me that a national hydrogen fuel network is a much better deal for $700 billion. Even tho world economies may suffer, but for the sake of saving global warming and climate change, it is a sacrifice worth taking.
Now people should realise where the power of change remain, its in the hands of politicans, the greed, and the wall street.
