Incentives to Reduce America's Dependency on Oil

Some people think that the government should be taking more responsibility for reducing the country’s dependency on oil. The most effective way to do this is to increase the amount of incentives the government gives to encourage the development and use of alternative energy. These incentives may include lending people money to develop new technologies based on solar energy and wind power.
