I'm all for Alternative sources. But the "people" aren't, even when it's double free for them. In the state of NY, which has the highest state taxes, the western NY people pay NY city taxes. Anyway, some people in W. NY had the option of getting windmills, at no cost to them, and if they allowed them to be built - they wouldn't have to pay state taxes, again the highest state taxes in the Country.

And they turned it down.

Americans really think drilling for oil and nuclear power is going to be what changes this Country. Just one Nuc power plant takes like 10 years to build. We need about double what we have now and both produce massive waste issues.

It all boils down to the Gov/States only want to support Power Sources that have extreme on-going costs, so they can bill you more for things like power.

Solar, wind, water, and our atmosphere has every bit of energy/power we will ever need. And the cost of this technology is much cheaper and way faster to build on massive levels.
