“Data always beats theories. 'Look at data three times and then come to a conclusion,' versus 'coming to a conclusion and searching for
some data.' The former will win every time.”

Well, im certainly for exploring it further. We have just plain got to have revenue from somewhere, the current bunch has looted the treasury and maxed out the credit cards.
Poor people in the US (and the rest of the world) are really struggling. I just want the taxes targeted so they don't hurt areas of the economy that are struggling and can return the money quickly to the poorest Americans. That 14-15% social security and medicare tax is a huge burden on people who can least afford it, while people who enjoy "capital gains" don't pay it at all. Its truely an obscene policy. But, i'm a landman, not an accountant or tax lawyer. I just want your guys to think about it.

Truly ... part of our target of raising money within EA2020 is so that, writ large, the investment stream will help lower the "cost to own" and will help those with lesser means get past the "cost to buy" increment of getting to higher energy efficiency.
Remember Ross Perot?
I met that shithead once, he was buying a piece of an operator's deal that I'd worked on. He was short and skinny with big ears and really short hair. Sort of like an elf spy, had a" I am very serious look."
Is he still alive?
