Investments in Renewable Energy to Double by 2020, Reaching $395 Billion Per Year, Says Bloomberg New Energy Finance

The article is talking about investment not government subsidy or loan guarantees (like Solyndra). So, if the private sector believes in the potential, it will invest in the companies regardless of what the Democrats, the Republicans, or "oil barron masters" do.

Who invests in renewable energy? The private owned utility companies. Renewable and alternative energies will take people off the grid and reduce utility profit. Then their is the coal industry as well as Natural Gas to compete for profits. All of which the Republicans cater to.

Who does? Many of these companies are publicly traded, so you could. Here is a list that includes their symbols and the exchange that lists each one. You don't need to be a millionaire to become an investor in renewable energy. Many of them have stock prices of $10 or less, so you could by a block of 100 shares for less than $1,000.

But, don't let that get in the way of your anti-Republican rant...

This whole debate has nothing to do with protecting the environment, or reducing our dependency on foreign oil. It's only purpose is to dominate the market share in the technology of it. C-span3 is airing the Solyndra hearing right now. I urge everyone to tune in and hear it for themselves. Chu has used the term "Market Industry", numerous times in defense of making the loan, and nothing to the effect of environmental benefits, in deciding to go through with the loan. This whole Green Energy, Global Warming, fairytale is about creating the next bubble, and like all other bubbles will eventually burst too.

For a country with four times as many people, that's about the correct ratio.
