The Department of Energy was instituted 8-04-1977:
Does anybody out there have any memory of the reason given
for the establishment of the DEPARTMENT OF ENERGY during the
Carter Administration?
Anybody?
Anything?
No?
Didn't think so.
Ready? It was very simple, and at the time everybody
thought it very appropriate.
To lesson "Our" dependence on foreign oil.
In 2008 the budget set for the department of energy is 24.2 billion
There are 16,000 employee's of the department
and approximately 100,000 contract employees
So tell me how good do you feel with Washington bailing us out?

I am an American Indian. I developed Muscular Dystrophy in 2001 at the ripe old age of 44. I spend my days mostly on line and with my Ex-wife, and kids. I guess you could say I'm a Democrat but I am most interested in what any candidate can do to improve the world in which we live. I know I really spell poorly but I take solace in the fact that neither could Einstein. LOL
