Changing to renewables will *help* our economy

Hi Dave,

I think that if we switch over to renewables, it will help our economy by creating jobs (that cannot be exported) and by keeping more of our dollars spent on energy here, where they are generated. We gain is security, because we send much less funding dollars to Russia, Iran, Venezuela, etc., and we do not have to have our military on high alert in the Middle East -- which will save us a bucket load of money, too.

And yes, we start to clean up our environment as well, which can't help but a very good thing.
