On the recordJune 30, 2010
It would be a very, very good thing. And most economists who look at the international markets and the next great industries don't look to the 19th century energy industry, coal and oil, as being the growth industries and where the jobs will be created. Those economists and futurists who look at these things tell us that the great energy industries of the future are the energy industries of this century, the renewables of all kinds. All that we had up here and even more than I had on that little chart. That is where the jobs will come there. And our policy ought to be to encourage those industries and those things, the wind turbines, the solar, even the nuclear systems and the rest, that they be built in America.
