Re:Obama's "Manhattan Project" On Alternative Ener (Score 1)

Has China shown a willingness to do whatever it takes to become a world economic power. Yes. They have shown the kind of take-no-prisoners attitude we have always admired in our entrepreneurs.

One other thing they have shown is that they do not like having to depend on foreign countries for anything important. That includes energy. I would be shocked if they don't already have their own Manhattan Project for energy, and I suspect it is very well funded. They have a system that can make this happen.

If China or India does find a way to produce the energy they need without having to ship money out of the country, they will have a tremendous economic advantage over countries that still have business models tied to old money business models.

Of course, we would never try to steal useful technology from them. That would be wrong.
