With what do we want to hold the oil price down

Recession means less oil consume means decreasincg oil price.

Who is against renewable energy is pro recession and an enemy of economic growth. The proponents of renewable energy are also proponents from a further economic growth.

Despite the fact that photovoltaik is cheaper then gasoline, we still hear like from a prayer wheel "renewable energy is to expensive". It's time to brighten this stuck in the mud what is expensive and cheap.
