That's OK. California will just offer a new trash can for solar crap. Wait until some of these idiots that put that crap on their roofs when it comes time to replace worn out panels and the roof needs re-roofing from weather. Rude awaking!

Exactly. Liberal environmental wackos don't think past their noses.

I had a liberal golf buddy when I lived in Arizona, that was bragging about his new home that was powered by solar panels. When I started asking about the costs versus return, his eyes glazed over.

It cost him over $50,000 to install solar panels on the house. At the current rate of electricity in Phoenix at the time, it would have taken him over 40 years to recoup his cost of the installation.

Not to mention the maintenance and replacement of the system after the Arizona sun literally baked everything on his roof. Solar panels need regular washing in the dusty desert of the southwest. Parts and entire panels would need to be repaired or replaced several times, long before the 40 years was up.

In the meantime, I just paid my $180 electric bill every month, knowing that I wasn't taken in by the liberal idea that solar power saves you money. I was light years ahead financially than he was when it came to comparing his costs of his solar energy versus my monthly electric bill. He was spending a dollar to save a nickel but that concept never took hold in his liberal head.

As a liberal, he remained smug in his assumption that he was doing the right thing to save the earth and prevent global warming with his huge financial outlay of money. Being a conservative, I looked at him as a fool, taken in by the scam of global warming perpetrated by the Left.

And don't get me started on the waste of energy to have wind power.....
