Get the federal government out of the marketplace.

Let solar and wind power compete in the marketplace without federal government subsidies.

When the federal government subsidizes solar what you have in effect is the government using taxpayer money to partner with the solar companies and compete with existing energy sources and technologies.

They want us to believe that solar is here and real and affordable but they can’t find anybody in FLORIDA to buy it without a huge subsidy. What a crock!!! They don’t tell you what the upfront costs are and of course nobody talks about the additional annual costs of insurance on the solar panels.

I was told that depending on your “Hurricane Zone” your insurance will go up anywhere from $500 to $1,200 A YEAR!!! That means by year 20-25, you will have paid for your system twice and that’s not counting regular maintenance like cleaning the panels, replacing panels that fail, etc..

There are reasons almost all homes in Florida don’t have solar panels.
