Pickens’ Plan

T. Boone Pickens is an answer to our prayers. Finally, a leader who has a plan and is taking action. This icon of an oil man understands the problem and has realistic solutions. Make no mistake, this is not an old man’s pipe dream. This is a world class business man who knows how to get things done on a global scale. He observes that we are presently witnessing the largest wealth transfer in world history, over 700 billion a year pouring out of the U.S. into overseas markets.

His approach is upbeat and positive. He identifies the United States as the Saudi Arabia of wind power. Our Mid-West is one of the largest windy areas on earth. Pickens is presently building the largest wind farm with his own money.

Another key in Pickens’ war against foreign oil is natural gas. He points out that we already have 8 million vehicles powered by natural gas which is abundant and affordable in North America. Other forms of energy are listed as part of the solution, but Pickens feels that wind power and natural gas need to be given priority quickly to buy us time in our transition away from foreign oil.

Perhaps the most powerful tool that Pickens has is the army of volunteers being drafted into his alternative energy campaign. I joined up, it just seemed right down patriotic. This is a cause that conservatives and liberals alike can join hands together and sing koom-by-ah about.
