Because the tax credits wouldn't cover the cost of research.  Do you know how much research costs?  Facilities, equipment, people?  Unless you are suggesting that government pay for all the research, and that is an even worse idea than tax credits.  It does nothing to address what we pay for goods and increases our tax burden as well.

I am not willing to have anything added to my taxes.  I already pay far to much.

Look around the road.  The expense is not paying off.  A few rich uber liberals are riding around in them feeling like they are saving the earth.  No actual good is being done.  It is a feel good program.

Alternative energy will emerge when it becomes profitable.  Until that time, we are wasting our money for no good reason.
