SOLAR PERSPECTIVE
SOLAR POWER... Is it an elusive dream or does it just lack government push to
make it areality on a large scale? When other energies are sold (gasoline, natural gas,
propane, hydroelectric,nuclear electric), they are metered on each increment and
government(s) receive tax monies collected for them by the seller.
It would appear that government(s) are in business with the energy companies.
Perhaps this is the reasonfor governmental push (subsidy) for distributed energies. When an
individual homeowner buys or builds renewable energy systems, there are no residual
tax dollars generated. Tax revenue previously collectedfrom the original energy
source is lost.
The bottom line for the preceding paragraph is
"DON'T EXPECT GOVERNMENT HELPWITH SOLAR
AND OTHER RENEWABLE ENERGY RESOURCES".
If you want toknow what happens to politicians who encourage solar and
renewable energy, look at Jimmy Carter. Who did he anger? Enough said. Get off
your dead butts and do it, it's locally labor
intensive, and energy dollars saved are likely spent locally!
