Green energy has always been more expensive than traditional fuels. Which is why the industry wouldn't exist without extensive gov't subsidies. Those subsidies cost taxpayers real money and distort the market for energy. Wind power has been subsidized since the 1980s (maybe more)..
Especially now with oil prices plunging due to increased production (take that, you "we're running out of oil" milquetoasts) the difference between green and traditional energy is even more.
Time to pull the plug on this expensive waste of taxpayer resource.
Nuclear Power is actually green
I'd subsidize it in a heartbeat
Until there's an earthquake......then it's just radioactive.
Old technology.
France is building them as fast as they can, Germany' dumping them.
The average Frenchman now creates 5 tons of carbon, the average German double that.
It's a win/win. The right gets plentiful energy at a cheap rate, the left get energy independence that doesn't add to global warming.
What's not to love?
Fukushima.
Old technology.
