"Finally, if Congress passes another stimulus package, it can't just be another round of $600 checks to go buy flat-screen TVs made in China. It has to also include bridges to somewhere -- targeted investments in scientific research, mass transit, domestic clean-tech manufacturing and energy efficiency that will make us a more productive and innovative society, one with more skills, more competitiveness, more productivity and better infrastructure to lead the next great industrial revolution: E.T. -- energy technology."

-Thomas Friedman

This is so dead on the mark! Thank you for sharing.

Brian,
Thanks. We all like to read Friedman's writing in the office. If you like that quote, you might enjoy some of our coverage of the financial crisis (http://thebreakthrough.org/blog/financial_crisis/) or are analysis of the changing political landscape surrounding energy issues (http://thebreakthrough.org/blog/new_energy_politics/). Keep reading, and enjoy,
Adam
