Ah, but millions of our ‘stimulus’ money has gone for the manufacturing of these behemoths - to factories in China!

Silly me, I thought that money was to create jobs in America.

And then they have to be shipped across the ocean. Those things are humongous...that must be quite a bill - and a massive amount on energy for such shipping.

All a massive scam.

The Washington pols have been playing footsie under the table with China for decades now. And alGora is a master player. I'd like to see him go down but if there is a real investigation and heads start to roll - re the phony data on climate control - he'll throw everyone else under the buss. I just want to live long enough to see him get his just deserts. Evil personified.

Wind turbines get the largest chunk of tax dollar support among all alternative energy scams, er, sources.

Be that as it may. An old Westinghouse plant, built in '72 to make gas turbines, which later made big electric motors, but is now Teco-Westinghouse (TECO is a Taiwan company) is building them just north of Austin.

These are not tiny turbines either.
