What alternative energy entrepreneurs need most is an oil price floor or at least the same tax privileges that the oil industry enjoys. Their biggest fear is investing all this money only to see it disappear when oil prices crash. The government can be much more useful than simply getting out of the way. It can actually play a constructive role. It's the oil lobby that needs to get the f**k out of the way.
