Department of Energy - A Waste of Energy and Money !

Does anybody out there have any memory of the reason given for the establishment of the DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY During the Carter Administration?

Anybody? Anything? No? Didn't think so!

This is the bottom line on the DOE:

We've spent several hundred billion dollars in support of an agency ...the reason for which not one person who reads this can remember.

The actual or stated reason was simple,.....very simple. And at the time everybody thought it very appropriate...The "Department of Energy" was instituted on 4 August 1977 TO LESSEN OUR DEPENDENCE ON FOREIGN OIL.

Hey, pretty efficient, huh?????

34 YEARS LATER.....AND THE BUDGET FOR THIS NECESSARY DEPARTMENT IS AT $24.2 BILLION A YEAR IT HAS 16,000 FEDERAL EMPLOYEES AND APPROXIMATELY 100,000 CONTRACT EMPLOYEES AND LOOK AT THE JOB IT HAS DONE!

THIS IS WHERE YOU SLAP YOUR FOREHEAD AND SAY 'WHAT WAS I THINKING?

And Obama doesn't want the Keystone XL pipeline which would not only bring us around 1 million gallons of oil a day, but employ tens of thousands of Americans at a time we need people to be employed.
