Federal Subsidies to Solar Up 626%, Subsidies to Wind Up 946%

I'd say the OECD and IEA are full of shiite.

The "green energy" scam, from our own lovable DoE:

Note the quasi-deceptive arrangement of graphs -- wind and solar are 9% and 1% (respectively) of only 8% of the energy total. In other words, the two "green energy" sources getting these subsidies in toto generate much less than 1% of U.S. energy needs.

Looking at NG, Petroleum, Coal and Nuclear just slight increases in each of these would mean billions in growth and tens of thousands of jobs...sans subsidies.
