I hope that someday before I die, I see people going to jail for putting up these “wind farms.” Sick piggies.

Absolutely right. I live about 40 miles from Dodge Center, MN where there are literally hundreds of acres of windmill turbins. They produce roughly 2% of the area electricity, but if you took away the gubmint subsidies AND the electricity from coal plants to power the eye sores, they are a cash drain and inefficient at best. Plus they are a disgusting eyesore to hundreds of acres of these monstrosities where it used to be prime farm land. It’s like the gubmint subsidies to the ethanol plants to make up the difference between inefficient ethanol & fossil fuels.
