Subsidize with what? More money borrowed from Red China?
Renewable energy and greater energy independence is a great idea- when and where it makes economic sense. If someone can develop solutions that will cost less or work better then give me a call. Make a better mousetrap and all that jazz... But we cant afford to tax and borrow the $$ to fund inferior mousetraps so some greenies can feel good about themselves. We simply do not have the money anymore to fund this or any other Potemkin energy projects.
