Which jobs? Certainly the government
's grants, incentives and subsidies have promoted "green" jobs in Detroit and many other places, and China has certainly latched onto the demand for "green" products like SOlar, Wind Turbines and related equipment; so has India. (Interesti
ng isn't it, that we lost the No. 1 spot in manufactur
ing "green" energy products in the space of just three short years!)
That doesn't mean the private sector won't do the job, it just means that without energy and operating subsidies, these jobs aren't profitable
, therefore business will not "waste" shareholde
r investment
s in low-return
/no-return on investment jobs.
Until energy taxes force conservati
on and developmen
t of alternativ
e energy sources, the ROI for private investors just isn't there. However, I think the ROI is there for investment in Zero Sum Pollution technologi
es.
