You bet! Pickens is looking for a boondoggle and massive subsidy payout all in the name of green energy.
If that’s not out of the Al Gore playbook, what is?
- Pickens states we can’t drill our way out of the current crisis. It’s provably false, but is the mantra of the watermelon leftists.
- Pickens wants the Government to pay him the subsidies to generate wind power. Not only forcing you to buy his power, but forcing you to pay a LOT more than just the electric bill says (because he’ll get subsidies). Just like forced mileage standards, CFL use, etc.
- Pickens plan will transfer literally BILLIONS of tax dollars to his pockets. Wealth transfer in the extreme.
So what’s conservative about that? And how is it fundamentally different than the schemes Al Gore is running?
