re: #104 LudwigVanQuixote

like doing anything that is good for you, but requires a change, most people think it is so important that everyone else does it.

As I said upthread you cannot get people to change through measure they perceive as punitive. Taxes, credits or any other type of government intervention will be seen as interference.

Efforts to incent positive behaviors on an individual and community level will be more powerful. Finding the WIFFM for constituents will go a lot further. Your list above (affordable electric batteries for transportation coupled with nuke plants…) is the best approach. If it has to be collectivism or large scale model it on something like the TVA that brought cheap power to the appalacian states and where people see a clear retun on their investment.
