How about the reality?  [b]Moving is a tremendous expense.  [/b]While being retained as a solar manufacturing employee or an installer what do you live on?  How do you afford to pick up your family and move?  And what about the fact that they may not look forward to leaving their more extended family and community.

While solar and wind may be booming, is that boom happening in the hills of West Virginia, Kentucky and Pennsylvania?  Maybe that should be the key, no solar/wind R&D or other tax incentives unless you set up in the area that is being displaced.  Oh.  But the engineers and business guys and management of those companies don't want to move either.[/quote]
It is expensive, but people do it.  All throughout history, people have moved to where the jobs are.  Some are willing to travel thousands of miles, leaving their extended families, over oceans and go to countries that speak a different language and have different cultures just to find jobs.  Even Trump's mother did it (she immigrated from Scotland as a maid). If people can do this, then I would think someone from WV could move to... IDK, VA, MD.. not too far to find a job.  [/quote]
