 Present debt: The debt we owe and are now accruing and what we can 
expect.As much as a third of the national debt and as much of the S&L ripoff 
involves oil windfall profits reinvested. Banks have written off foreign 
debt at taxpayer expense,American foreign aid has been used to pay off 
foreign debt.  


   National debt                     3.5 trillion =  $14,000 per person 
   The S&L ripoff                     .5 trillion =   $2,000 per person 
   Rebuilding amenity infrastructure 3.5 trillion  = $14,000 per person 

   FIXED PRE-NATAL DEBT              7.5 trillion    $30,800 per person 

   Yearly energy expenditure             2 trillion   $8,000 per person 
   Yearly guess at ecological damage     1 trillion  =$4,000 per person 
   Pollution control annually  est.     .5 trillion  =$2,000 per person 

   THE YEARLY est. OF THE ENERGY SCAM  3.5 trillion  $14,800 per person 

   War to protect oil  est.             200 billion =   $800 per person 
   Reparations after the war  est.       1 trillion = $4,000 per person 

   WAR   guess                         1.2 trillion = $4,800 per person 


   The money to convert our energy system to non polluting Hydrogen is in 
the cost of purchasing the energy, the pollution controls,the portion of the 
military budget used to protect oil,the war, a portion of the infrastructure 
overhaul(money that needs to be spent anyway) , then add the costs of 
climate change by the carbon pollution, the acid rain to buildings, forests( 
lumber), ocean, lakes (fish),and agriculture, the health burdens, and the 
millions who go without while we wallow in stupidity.  

   How much is a trashed planet worth?  

   All we need to do is provide 300,000 BTU for each person. WE spend $8,000 
A YEAR per person in this country for energy. We need about $2,000 per 
person to convert to Hydrogen using concentrator collectors.  

  A one shot deal. This is your money, about $5 a day for a year is all it 
takes. just vote it to the task !  

   Today "WE" are spending more than $20 a day per person for ever on just 
the energy at the wasteful 4.6 gallons per person per day. At $5 a day for 
one year we get the pollution abatement, the water supply, simplify the 
infrastructure rebuild, the electricity, the heat, update and power the car, 
and with the $8000 a year after that we can---is ours to benefit mankind.  

   If you want to get radical consider this on a 10 year spreadsheet: 

   Add the cost of the war, the portion of the national debt and S&L ripoff 
due to fossil fuel, climate change, acid rain damage, the price of energy 
due to entropy (planned scarcity), pollution abatement etc.just a guess $80 
trillion for the nation, possibly a half million dollars per person, and two 
and a half million for a family of five,this is the beginning of some real 
serious money.
