Tilting at windmills on a national level.
last time i drove through Kansas there were a TON of them... I was surprised at the numbers

Does anyone have any real economic numbers on this stuff? From what I have read, this stuff is not economically viable without Federal subsidies, but I would like to know for certain one way or the other.
If anyone has any numbers regarding the cost of construction, cost of operation, and the output energy and what it is sold at, I would like to see if the numbers balance.
If they don't at least balance, the whole things is a boondoggle.
How much of this growth has been subsidized with my tax dollars?
Whoosh whoosh whack kaboom

Wind Generators have very many lobbyist.
Whores in Congress like lobbyist monies.
Simple math.
Berkshires CEO, Warren Buffett, explained why his companies are in the wind business. We get a tax credit if we build a lot of wind farms. Thats the only reason to build them, he said. They dont make sense without the tax credit.
