From Energy Subsidies to Energy and Cost Savings
We have been paying energy subsidies to our poor, to help them pay their energy bills. That only increased our energy use. A better strategy is to show them how to save energy, cost effectively, so their energy costs will go down. Better showing how to fish, than giving fish.
Q1: Where are the sources of information on who subsidizes energy bills?
Idea Description
We have been paying energy subsidies to our poor, to help them pay their energy bills. That only increases energy use. Funds have come from federal, states, counties, cities and private charities. A better strategy is to use all these funds collectively, to show the poor how to save energy cost effectively, so their energy costs will go down. We have retired scientist and engineers that could help in showing how and give the retired people something meaningful to do. They could show the poor how and then train the poor to help even more of the poor. The poor could earn money showing the rich how to save even more money. The subsidies are only temporary as our debts come due.
What will you do if you win $10,000 for this idea?
Set up a page on my website to collect information on all sources of funding and all retired people and other interested people that could help to put all the pieces together. Also collect information on training materials from books and the energy department's work. Started at http://RecoveryByDiscovery.com/EnergySavings

I like your idea; I want to improve your odds of getting funding I will vote for your idea if you will vote for mine. My idea is for a web site that raises money for inventors and entrepreneurs called New Idea website Check out my idea blob submission and visit New Idea Website and see what I can do for you. http://www.ideablob.com/ideas/4060-NEW-IDEA-WEBSITE The need for jobs is one of the biggest problems that a democratic government faces because creating jobs is an unwanted byproduct of business and industry. The reason I say its unwanted is the more jobs a business creates the more its expenses are and the smaller it’s bottom-line. If business and industry have their way they would run their companies with no jobs at all no management or labor. To deal with this dilemma I pr…moreopose a federal venture capital carrot fund that literally pays entrepreneurs to create jobs. The investment bank would be expected invest in seed level startup projects like yours and to lose money at a specified dollar per jobs ratio for example during hard times that figure may be as high as $20,000 per job and good times the figure may be as low as five dollars per job, by controlling this ratio the fed could roughly control unemployment. The bank will be expected to fund novel products and services and stay away from things like restaurants that will simply draw jobs from other restaurants or moving factories from one part of the country to another. If you like this idea vote for it and send the congressional letter from the website. Sincerely Frank Scruggs
