Our Solar/Alt Energy Future

[Synthaholic]

Solar in the UK is shit. In southern Scotland, it's shitter. I put my postcode into a website, and the orientation of the house to NESW, and after the lifespan of buying the panels, it would have cost me £1,800. So if I just stay with the national grid on fossil fuels, I'm £1,800 better off.

It might work in Americastan, but not here.

No one claimed solar was the best choice for every area of the world. You would have better results with wind and hydroelectric. Also biofuel and small nuclear.

 

[Synthaholic]

Tax deductions are not subsidies.

Democrats and the Democrat Politicians misuse words all the time.

Why did you fail to give us the link. I know it is a loosely enforced rule of USMB, but in your case, follow the rules.

There is no link to the actual tax code in which you are calling subsidies. Why no links to the tax code. You realize the only way to understand a tax code is to read the tax code.

Link to the tax code. Or post the tax codes, not some asshole politician or reporter/activist calling the tax code a subsidy.

Lol!

Sorry, we were speaking about subsidies that were claimed to be given to Oil companies. The tax code is not a subsidy.
