It's not a 4 year game that we Americans seem to think it is, it's a long term sustainability that we should be aiming for.
Oh no one here douts that it will take more 10 years, the administration clearly said, that it will take a long time and the opposition (except for the loonies) accepted that. And I guess the general population is aware of that and is aware that prices will rise.
The questions rising here are more questions of honesty and efficiancy.
We are currently undergoing a lot of bottlenecks - since not that energy is there to be destributed.
Companies have used this by on purpose switching of machines to demand compensation from the goverment.
And it currently seems like the goverment is in over it`s head and that the major energy companies are not pulling with them.
Everyone here is aware that the change is coming and everyone wants it to happen, and everyone accepts that it will take a long time and might have a high cost.
But we still want it to be handeled efficiantly and reject what currently seems to be half chaos half order in the minestry of energy and minestry of inviorment.
