Solar and wind suck. The way you can tell us that Martha's vineyard and Cape cod fight to the death to keep them out.

When Aspen, Martha's vineyard and the Hamptons get wind farms and when jets take off with batteries then I'll consider them worth looking into.[/quote]

You know, government has often subsidized new technologies. We gave away millions of acres to the railroads in the 1800s to incentivize them to build railroads across the country (every other section on each side of the line extending 6 miles on each side, so the railroads got 6 square miles of land for every mile of track they built, which could then be sold to the promoters pitching new towns where the trains would go).

There was a guy on one of the broadcast news channels last night, he builds solar panels in the midwest (I think Indiana?)--manufacturing IN the US, not imported from  China. He has 64 employees and says if the bill goes through he will have to lay off have of them. He went to Washington to make his case but he says these people can look right at you and simply not believe anything you tell them.

Besides, this is not just removing incentives--it's ADDing a tax.

Also, the incentives could help make the difference between your grandchildren having a civilized world to live in. [/quote]
