#2 China has a huge and growing demand for energy. As much as they would like to see the US suffering, they realise the disruptions in world energy markets will affect them also. The last thing the Emperor wants is a restless, surly population. Did I say Emperor? Sorry, I meant the Central Committee.

#3 Energy cooperation with us?

Why - do they have some reason to think their supply from Iran might be cut off?

#4 It is no surprise Lugar bellies up to the commies. He too believes the market won't work and government is the answer. Time for him to go.

#5 --In a speech in Washington, Dick Lugar, the influential Republican senator, warned: No one who is honestly assessing the decline of American leverage around the world due to energy dependence can fail to see that energy is the albatross of US national security.--

)#$*%)(#*%)(#*%)(*#$%* SOB!

Open up ANWR - drill in the Gulf - work on all those natural gas pocket and free coal.

AND - require Congress to stay in their states and use teleconferencing for most of their stuff.

They're only allowed in DC for swearing in and major votes and speeches.

#6 China blogs are reporting that China needs anywhere from 40-100 new nuclear power plants. The PRC is also in sore need of new dams and water collection/purification systems - some posters argue that China's need for safe drinking water may become a geopol problem for the world - read, WAR FOR WATER - in about 10 years, and despite the creation of the THREE GORGES system. Part of the reason why the CCP's one-child policy has not worked is that mainstream Chinese are hell-bent/dedicated on replacing family members whom died or were crippled due to the State's on-going failures on clean up pervasive environmental-industrial wastes.
