Representative Frank Wolf (R-VA) thinks it might. Last week, he urged the National Science Foundation (NSF) to raise such a prodigious amount from private sources and then give it to scientists offering ideas on how to make the United States energy independent."

The House voted 225-201 to approve a plan sponsored by California Republican Richard Pombo that would allow drilling on 2,000 acres of ANWR out of the refuge's total 19 million acres.

If  money alone could have solved the problem, it would have been fixed a long time ago. The problem is not energy or money, the problem is our denial, the first step any addict must take is to admit his addiction and understand that they alone cannot solve it. We are in denial, we are just an addict that happens to be in the phase of addiction where the drug supply is cut off, and the dealer is hoarding whatever is left and raising the price. The price was money at one time, now the dealer wants us to prostitute ourselves. We are willing to do that, spill our blood in defending those that hate us. When the crisis is over,temporarily, we will continue in our addiction until the next time. Plus ca change, plus c'est la meme chose The more it changes, the more its the same.

The X-prize system is being used to further space development and anti-aging therapies. There is no reason why it should not work here as well. The regulatory approach to dealing with these issues is a dead horse. Get over it and move on.

If $1 billion became available and the NSF had to decide who to give it to, it would use the same, fundamentally flawed process that is already screwing up mainstream science: peer review. Read Thomas Gold's article "The Inertia of Scientific Thought" for details on just how badly peer review is broken. The end result would be that the money would go to people with ideas for incremental improvements of existing technologies, while people who work on cold fusion, ZPE/ether energy devices, macroscopic Maxwell demons, anti-gravity, etc would be turned away without review on a-priori ground of lacking any and all scientific credibility.
