How else would you institute across the board energy efficiency changes?

"To help pay for the cost of these retrofits, states and localities may provide loans, utility rate rebates, tax rebates, or implement retrofit programs on their own. In fact, the government will even pay up to 50 percent of the cost of a retrofit through financial awards to individual home and building owners."

“States shall maintain responsibility for meeting the standards and requirements of the REEP program,” the bill says.

Get it paid for and let the States administer. So what is wrong here?

Other than it isn't even in the Senate and nowhere near being a law...and the tin-foil-hat bloggers are unhappy.

Can you find a "blogspot" that proposes a better alternative?
