  Simple shoes

  "Simple Shoes" have excellent natural fiber/material shoes.  Very cute too.  "Sierra Trading Post" often has some Simple shoes at a substantial discount.  I have two pairs of Simple shoes.  Love 'em.

  About 4 to 6% of 8.1 billion

  My understanding is that about 4 to 6% of the 8.1 billion dollars in tax breaks goes to renewable energy sources or conservation.  Granted, I haven't read the bill, which I will do.  Since you have read the bill, perhaps you could give me a head start by listing the conservation and renewable energy initiatives in it, and contrasting them to the oil/gas/coal initiatives?

  I don't think 'semi-deep ecologists' want no energy bill. I think environmentalists, ecologists and just about any informed citizen would choose an energy bill that promotes conservation and renewable sources and does not subsidize oil/gas/coal.
