Ok, I understand what you meant now. Is supporting renewable energy development radical? IMO, no...using tax dollars to invest in new technology isn't the same as changing fundamental market forces as evidenced by the fact that when the market couldn't support Solyndra, it went bankrupt and wasn't given further govt assistance.
It is a very reasonable idea for us to explore and support technology such as this. And in the same way that NASA investments spun off all sorts of new & commercially viable technology, I think looking at renewable energy would be about the same.
