An item at Doug Ross’s blog inspired this business plan:

  1. Raise big bucks for Obama’s campaign.
  2. Start a “green energy” company.
  3. Get an Energy Department grant.
  4. Profit!

    Please note that no resources were injured during the execution of this plan as no product was actually manufactured and sold.
