Forget methane deposits on Saturn.  Look at the vast methane deposits in 
our own oceans.  There is enough known methane in the oceans to supply 
our power needs for hundreds of years and think about the deposits we 
don't know about.  The reason we have a problem with fuel prices right 
now is due to the government's inability to mandate requirements to the 
oil companies and then give them the ability to meet the demand for 
energy by letting them drill wherever needed and build refineries to 
produce enough petrol products.

Another place the government is letting us down is in leading the charge 
  (pun intended) in moving battery technology forward.  There is no 
reason that we can't have a viable electric car (aka plug in) available 
to the consumer.  A plug in with a 200-300 mile range would sell big.
