The allure of getting something for nothing is very powerful. I am sure in their minds sunlight is free, wind is free. All the government has to do is mandate we go green and get everything for free. Government mandates are free too. It's magic. Legislators put words on a page and vote. What could be easier than that? Free solutions to every problem. Not only can we solve our problems with more taxes we can double our free shit with deficit spending. Everything is fun and games till the magical thinking kills the real source of the available energy. Nothing is a barometer of the magic horse shit better than Telsa's stock. Up 13.5% in one day to a magical $1.2 trillion market value. It makes me sick. I see fools who will only see the light when they are freezing in the dark. Why are our expenses going up faster than our paycheck? I wonder.
@Keenan - that's funny about the snow on their solar panels. They never thought they would have to get off their ass and do any work to get their free energy. In the winter the amount of electricity coming from the panels is probably not so impressive.
