Engineers haven't been finding jobs for most of this decade, especially on the Electrical/Computer, and of course, anything to do with...
Twisted, hardly. Capital isn't something that's created by bankers writing numbers on pieces of paper, or using printing presses. Its...
Yeah no kidding, all these loan programs are like giving heroin and crystal meth to an fat man with a broken leg, and then expecting him to go out...
Capital and confidence. You're right. I am an engineer, and I personally know many engineers who have awesome ideas. But they won't implement...
Obama needs to put a bona fide scientist or engineer into the positions of Treasury Secretary, and Fed Chairman. Someone who understands that...
Yeah no kidding, whack the bankers, take their assets and positions away (and throw them into concentration or re-education camps), burn down Wall...
That would be better than the alternative that is coming down the pipeline if Wall St. isn't abolished.
Remember all those f*cking morons on TV who said, when petrol prices were high: "WE NEED TO BUILD MORE REFINERIES!" "America hasn't built a...
Well, its not that simple. As I stated earlier, the coal powered power plant has a 25% efficiency, ie: for every 1 Joule worth of coal that is...
Exactly! Its not a simplistic issue like "electric cars are 4X more efficient than gas cars". Well, one thing that could be done to new cars...
In fairness, electric cars will improve the air quality in some cities. But I'd suggest that downsizing the financial industry, and stopping...
Yeah no kidding. In order for America to afford these vehicles, the manufacturing industry is going to have to be revived. Manufacturing takes...
Yup GTS. The big problem is that the electric grid itself isn't delivering energy at much better than 20% overall efficiency. 14,000...
Well, you have to consider the full-cycle efficiency (ie: coal out of the ground, to heat, to steam, to shaft work, to electricity, ..). Once you...
Why though? Surplus assets? They see the 'writing on the wall'? They're broke themselves? Want to load up on other assets that are cheaper?...
Ummm, joule for joule, these 'electric cars' are less efficient than petrol (gasoline) vehicles. In other words, if you need "x" amount of energy...
GS people and their ilk can manipulate the process and steal all they want, but a lot of good it will do them when the masses are hungry, and...
Doesn't Goldman Sachs get sued over this sort of stuff? Why does this outfit seem to have Teflon when it comes to the courts? Drug...
Simple: rent deflation. Biggest cost for most people is their houses. Why interest rates are even as high as 0.25% mystifies me. They...
I know amongst my friends who are engineers -- nearly all of them are unemployed. With little hope for finding employment. Its a real disaster...
