Power'd Up....For Now.

STRAIGHT FROM THE FOXES DEN: Obama says the oil crisis will not derail economic growth because we are more energy efficient than in the 1970's..

Point.

U.S. Population according to The Census.

1970=203,392,031

2010=308,745,538

Its true our household electronics have become more energy efficient since the 70's.

Yet the bills are about the same why is this?

Well we now have a ton more items in our home that use up our energy.

Our population has grown over 100 million people larger since the 70's alot of which have larger homes now than in the past probably to have room for all these

gadgets that require power power and oh wait whats that? another dose of power and energy.

Computers, cell phone chargers, microwaves, playstaions and xboxes, home entertainment systems. TVs in every room, PSPS, Ipods, etc.

In the 70's as a kid if you wanted to have an adventure...you'd have to hope to find it in your backyard...now you can put on your alternative reality sun goggles...and...

We need a massive system to help us become energy efficient..we need the president to come on T.V. and be like "America today S*** is going to change, yup we are retooling the system...solar panels for everybody. We'll be making our way to all your homes blah blah blah". Kind of like the weatherizaiton thing.
