It is widely accepted in the micro economist’s realm, that an economic perspective or an economic way of thinking is one that’s concerned with how individuals, entities and institutions, and society make the best or even optimal choices, when conditions of scarcity exist. People inherently desire, seek and demand goods and services.
One current economic perspective being overtly sold to people, is that going ‘all-in’ with Solar Photovoltaic technology, and the production and installation of power generating panels, is allegedly not worth pursing with panel efficiencies only as high as 17% (the level most quoted) and the $30,000 to $50,000 per home cost for a moderately upgraded version Photovoltaic system having storage capability of surplus panel energy for use during peak or less light days.
As relates to accessibility and the affordability of all the devices and products that will get US off all use of any fossil fuels and nuclear completely -– just having such accessibility and affordability -- will result in significant recordable and realized switching of our supply of energy from fossil fuel produced, to only those produced from a renewable type process.
Renewable source only produced Energy – which needs to be society mandated by the people not prevented by the power and industry folks – from photovoltaic panels and films, solar-hydrothermal, geothermal, solar heating, windmills and turbines, many types of fuel cells, methane reclamation cogeneration, flowing water bodies, ocean waves, hydrogen, carbon dioxide and others, being developed and now viable just not available, IS the cure.
Energy production using the sun as the source is being held hostage from becoming reality in this marketing deception of the economic perspective defining the critical and closely interrelated criminal monopoly over scarcity and choice by power, industry and government.
All of these which renew themselves we would now rely upon. They are all from the sun, effects of the sun, biological actions, electrolysis, or from water. The biggest point and benefit is that they are not gone because they are not one time use resources and do not originate from crude oil, natural gas, coal, coal sands, or nuclear sources.
A shift of this magnitude in the source fuel to produce energy for consumption, would fully teeter the ratio to the other extreme from the growing to nearly 80% sourced from fossil fuels in just a few decades. At such time they are expected to run out as a supply.
To effect such a conversion to lower fossil fuels consumption to this teetered 20%, achieving the ability and infrastructure to be producing 80% of energy being requested for consumption from renewable methods and devices, could be attained by aggressive building of manufacturing capacity as Phase One, to employ people and make the machines that will make the pieces of the devices and products.
Simultaneously, we bring on Phase Two, which realizes benefits from the machines we all just made, by now actually manufacturing the devices and complimentary products that will produce this clean energy and the GazilloWatts we thirst for, from only renewable sources beyond the current known limitations of physics. People will have to be trained to fill the manufacturing positions created by now having the capability to make products.
These new devices which make energy, by sun, wind, heat, water, fuel cell and wave, will need to be installed by specially trained people, and maintained by specially trained mechanics. In order to maximize full benefit of this new industry’s evolving technologies, equipment and machines will need to be operated continuously by specially trained operators and administrators. This will mean the creation of never before seen in this country jobs, all numbering in the hundreds of thousands, surely millions, of new industry sustainable positions of employment and professions. Permanent jobs growing into the millions will have been created in just the next 5-15 years, during the exponential ramping of this whole new replacement industry, to the current power producers’ industry monopoly, which the same industry and participants sadly insists to deliver energy supply produced mostly using fossil fuels and nuclear ore as the source.
Another benefit to such an aggressive conversion off the fossil fuels is the simultaneous stepping off of and elimination of all imports and exports of crude oil, natural gas, coal and nuclear fuels to zero barrels tons and rods, except for that crude oil produced domestically only we consume exporting none, which will also create additional rewards and profit to all Americans, by the elimination of these huge expenditures against our GDP. This will free up and create surplus to invest back into continuing further efforts towards energy self-sufficiency and goal of being an energy surplus producer.
Becoming an energy surplus provider, puts additional supply on the world market and permits other countries to reduce themselves as well, towards independence from fossil fuels as a consumed source for production of energy they demand.
Stopping the extraction from the geology of all the various fossil fuels is a win for the planet. This environmental, science based decision to stop affecting the geology directly under the United States Territories in from sea to shining sea, will stop all human-activity caused subduction of the land, and plates which cause even other geological events.
Reduction of fossil fuels extraction and mining, namely crude oil, to an eventual level necessary to produce a limited number of everyday products which have not experienced a green replacement, should then become the temporary new running minimum norm of a mandate to extract the least possible amount of crude oil this American society can consume.
That said, more focus and consideration needs turned onto the current problem of the intentional interference waged on our whole society -- our country’s families, individuals and businesses – through this power and industry blockade by deception, preventing us all from being allowed to have a sufficiently developing and ramping up complex of the manufacturers able to produce the renewable produced energy supply devices and equipment.
Removing this revealed collusive block to getting off fossil fuels and achieving access to those products and technologies desired, which also allows you and me to help be a player in the conversion off fossils, paying the current hyperinflated prices, cracking open the block by embedded, in play, multiple gatekeepers, thus making access and availability (at same time manufacturing capacity also inhibited intentionally by the same entities) as difficult and prolonged as possible, this becomes a rather large microeconomic view and example of the basic essence of what economics and study of it is all about :
The blockade to our sources of energy being converted from fossil to non-fossil sourced energy is almost exclusively about -- Scarcity and Choice.
Even more so, it’s really about the current in place intent and fix by power, industry and government, together with the few private individuals and entities controlling the largest flows of money in this country, which obfuscates a proper economic perspective for the country as one giant consumer of energy.
By deceptively using Scarcity (intentional inaccessibility), and Choice becoming a negatively placed subliminal lasting fallacy by getting people to not choose renewable at this time (while denying affordability and supply), citing incredibly low efficiency and significant high cost, and while promoting fossil fuels as the only current method/way we should use to get us off the same, while increasing fossil fuel use in the name of reducing its use, the only accomplishment will be that of negating nearly all use and development, of that which has been revealed as the way and source for independence from use of fossils fuels – Renewables – held hostage and squashed from use or even achieving development past the alleged inefficient and too costly status, said to exist today, by none other than, power, industry and government.
So when everything is ruined, and no fossil fuels left, and 50% unemployment 5-30 years from now, and then production of energy falling off dramatically due to blockaded alternative supply development, causing even more poverty and a drastic drop of gross domestic product, to a consumption only country like North Korea. That is when even those who hold this nation hostage from making the conversion will become the prey.
Conclusion: What we have is intentional scarcity and impeachment of choice.
