I hate being a pessimist, but motherfuckers can't even figure out how to agree on fixing a building that was vey clearly and obviously on the verge of collapse. The only way to get people to fix anything is to make it more expensive in the short term to not fix it. So then the question becomes how to monetize energy waste. Jimmy Carter tried that in the 70s and was booted out of office for it (but at least we got Sammy Hagar's timeless anthem...One foot on the brake and one on the gas...). His problem was that he looked for a technical solution without regard to the political solution of consensus building.I think everything that can be said has been said... except the part where we can fix things.
