»Es werden alle Sektoren (Strom, Verkehr und Wärme) zusammen betrachtet. Und siehe da: 80 Prozent des Energiebedarfs werden in Deutschland heute fossil gedeckt, 7,5 Prozent durch Kernkraft, 13 Prozent durch erneuerbare Energien. Wenn man bei den Erneuerbaren das Wasser und die Biomasse (einschließlich Biogas und Biosprit) abzieht, bleiben übrig: 1,5 Prozent der Primärenergie werden durch Windkraft erzeugt, 1 Prozent durch Fotovoltaik (Seite 10 der Studie). Zusammen ergibt das 2,5 Prozent Wind- und Sonnenenergie – wahrlich noch ein langer Weg bis zu 100 Prozent.«

Vom Verlust Der Freiheit

Raymond Unger

But in the People’s State of Marx, there will be, we are told, no privileged class at all. All will be equal, not only from the juridical and political point of view, but from the economic point of view. At least that is what is promised, though I doubt very much, considering the manner in which it is being tackled and the course it is desired to follow, whether that promise could ever be kept. There will therefore be no longer any privileged class, but there will be a government and, note this well, an extremely complex government, which will not content itself with governing and administering the masses politically, as all governments do to-day, but which will also administer them economically, concentrating in its own hands the production and the just division of wealth, the cultivation of land, the establishment and development of factories, the organization and direction of commerce, finally the application of capital to production by the only banker, the State. All that will demand an immense knowledge and many “heads overflowing with brains” in this government. It will be the reign of scientific intelligence, the most aristocratic, despotic, arrogant and contemptuous of all regimes. There will be a new class, a new hierarchy of real and pretended scientists and scholars, and the world will be divided into a minority ruling in the name of knowledge and an immense ignorant majority.

Does it follow that I reject all authority? Far from me such a thought. In the matter of boots, I refer to the authority of the bootmaker; concerning houses, canals, or railroads, I consult that of the architect or the engineer. For such or such special knowledge I apply to such or such a savant. But I allow neither the bootmaker nor the architect nor savant to impose his authority upon me. I listen to them freely and with all the respect merited by their intelligence, their character, their knowledge, reserving always my incontestable right of criticism and censure. I do not content myself with consulting a single authority in any special branch; I consult several; I compare their opinions, and choose that which seems to me the soundest.
