Once our next engine comes on line, we won't have to depend on defense spending to keep busy. Imagine this...a jet engine that runs on methane from chicken/turkey turds that runs a generator and provides cheap energy...That's a reality that will be up and running in Oklahoma within the next couple of weeks.

I doubt I'll become unemployed through this recession. We also have plenty of NATO engines that are in high demand as well...
