China Is Winning Global Race To Make Clean Energy

Hugh Pickens writes "The NY Times reports that China vaulted past competitors in Denmark, Germany, Spain and the United States last year to become the world's largest maker of wind turbines, has leapfrogged the West in the last two years to emerge as the world's largest manufacturer of solar panels, and is pushing equally hard to build nuclear reactors and the most efficient types of coal power plants. These efforts to dominate renewable energy technologies raise the prospect that the West may someday trade its dependence on oil from the Mideast for a reliance on solar panels, wind turbines and other gear manufactured in China."

Orwell was a prophet, a large chunk of the US is already brainwashed. I suppose the "socialist agenda's" your talking about include, the individual's right to clean air and water and the individual's right to get sick without facing bankruptcy.
