    Would you consider a tax on plant food, the proceeds of which are given to the far more expensive renewable option to be a prejudice?

      But as you know generation is only a portion of the cost of delivering electricity.

      And it is the most expensive electricity delivered to the consumer on demand everywhere in the world.
      ​​​​​​​You've had years and you still can't find an exception to that rule.

          That's what you get when you hook your solar panels to the grid.

          Go off grid and get yourself a wood stove for heat and cooking.

          We had all that.
          My grandparents had batteries in the basement 70 yrs ago.
          ​​​​​​​They were happy to see them go.
          Just like the outdoor toilet no doubt!

          Most countries have at least some renewables and some have a lot so obviously they work!

          North Dakota and Texas, those radical left wing states have a lot.

          So there is your answer to batteries and windmlls from seventy years ago as an analogy for 2025?

          Or are you still using machinery from 70 years ago?

            Delivery vans not "Teslers!"

            Come on down to Washington Avenue to The White House Auto Mall for the biggest sale of the year on "Teslers!" "They got computers" !

            Would you buy a used car or a "Tesler" from Donny?

            Apparently he thinks they are pretty good!

                  They had the most modern equipment at the time.
                  All that equipment evoved over time to what we use today.

                  The windmills and the batteries disappeared for generations because we got the much more efficient and convenient power grid.

                  They still need that gas generator to start up when the lights get dim.

                  When Carney converts us to an Energy Superpower with the net zero goal will we all need light plants on standby again?

                  And for sure the wood cook stove?
