ummm we don’t need subsidies, we just need to quit outlawing coal fired power plants
Of course, subsidies are the “answer” in a social market economy if you don’t want nominal costs to “necessarily skyrocket”.
That struck me odd also.
Why subsidize something they are actively trying to destroy?
God blessed us with ample supplies of carbon based fuels (like coal), so we should use them.
I have no idea why the Government would be subsidizing them though.
