For some reason, the more solar panels you have on your roof, the higher your consumption of electricity. I guess people figure that if they “appear” to be environmentally conscious, they don’t feel guilty leaving all the lights on and running the dishwasher when it’s half empty. I think Al Gore fits that profile to a tee.

You seem to be implying that one is the cause of the other? Why not say that the higher your consumption of electricity, the more solar panels you have on your roof?

Also as people start to save gas, I have been hearing rumblings from govts on new taxes - they just aren’t making their money on taxing gas any more.

By the way, everytime I go onto a lib website they blame the failure of the car companies on the idea “they won’t make the green cars Americans want - only SUVs and such”.

I always laugh at people like this. My ultimate argument is always “If people want something, they buy it.”
