This has been a good read, I have learned a lot.
I don't know anything about energy, I'm a land guy. I know that I get taxed by the government so they can give subsidies to people to build and put windmills on their land. So as a tax payer, I pay for these windmills. I know that these windmills cost more to build, install and set up on the grid, then they will ever save by generating electricity.
I know for a fact, that if my neighbor puts windmills on his property along my property line, that the value of my land falls by 35% to 60%.
So if I have worked all my life, paid tons of taxes and finally saved enough to buy a ranch. I can then lose up to half of my equity in that ranch so the state can lose money to create energy some of the time.
