Funny thing is that the two dams in Ann Arbor Michigan are going to be retrofitted to produce electricity, its the other 3000+ dams in Michigan that need to come out.
Electricity for me and none for thee.
Yeah someone posted on here a report detailing how we could produce enough electricity for several million homes by retrofitting existing dams to produce power. Also the Idaho national lab has a report out about how we could double our electrical output from hydro which currently represents about 6% of the national total. Imagine if we had spent solyndra et. al. money on this. Yep there would be jobs and actual super cheap renewable power. But nope. We need to bail out GM for the third time. jeez.
