“You can drill in the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge, on every continental shelf and atop every hill in America for that matter, and you still won't reverse the fact that our oil production is in permanent decline.

“If you're using first-class land for biofuels, then you're competing with the growing of food.

“Technical progress and more comfortable living permit the systematic inclusion of libidinal components into the realm of commodity production and exchange. But no matter how controlled the mobilization of instinctual energy may be (it sometimes amounts to a scientific management of libido), no matter how much it may serve as a prop for the status quo - it is also gratifying to the managed individuals, just as racing the outboard motor, pushing the power lawn mower, and speeding the automobile are fun.” MaySometimesMatterIndividualEnergyFunProgressAmountComfortableManagementProductionsRealmsPushingControlledPermitRacingInclusionCommodityStatus QuoComponentsMotorAutomobileSystematicLawnsPropsSpeedingLibidoMobilizationMowers Author:Herbert Marcuse

“Many governments are giving subsidies to fossil fuel production and consumption that encourage greenhouse gas emissions, at the same time as they are spending on projects to promote clean energy.

“One of the most important things, that we [in US] have to engage is unleashing our domestic energy production opportunities.

“It is much more accurate to identify the factors of production as know-how (that is genetic information structure), energy, and materials, for, as we have seen, all processes of production involve the direction of energy by some know-how structure toward the selection, transportation, and transformation of materials into the product” KnowsEnergyProcessKnow HowInformationMaterialsProductsTransformationStructureProductionsFactorsAccurateSelectionTransportationFactors Of Production Author:Kenneth E.
