True, but that’s not his issue. He’s got windy open land; if the gov’t will subsidize putting up windmills for a profitable operation, then makes sense for T. to do so.
His “pitch” came a little before the great expansion into Shale oil production. Perhaps HIS ‘land’ reserve wasn’t shale-worthy. Also at a time when HUGE amounts were being invested in Solar and wind.
The whole key about his pitch was to get government money to ‘help’ him make money. No better than Solyndra and all the rest.
I just ain’t buying the argument anything he pushed was viable on its own commercially. GOVERNMENT MONEY!
