Do you believe it was a good idea for the GOVERNMENT to put a freeze on commercialized solar energy production

Question

Actually.......Solar along with other "redundant" options works out to approximately $0.0867 per KWh(i.e. right now). Thats the problem folks. most of you only look the the "NOW" in everything you do. We have to step outside this type of mindset.

Answer 1

The government puts controls on something they can directly profit from and give a kickback to the energy companies, who overprice the products to make insane profits, which makes it unaffordable to the majority of those who would benefit from low cost renewable energy.

Exactly, why use public lands to put these panels, when there is plenty of less obstructive places to put them. Why are they all scattered horizontally across the landscape, when they could be constructed vertically in much less space. Put them on the towers they already have in place throughout the USA. Place them on people's homes, so the people could get paid for the space the panels occupy, on private property. There are really so many ideas that have not yet been explored.

It could be so much more simple than the "experts" suggest. We just need someone with great ideas, and the money to support those ideas, to solve this mess. And it ain't the GOVERNMENT, who puts controls, form committees, and create more problems than they could ever solve. Bush may have side-stepped the lame duck thing, but his actions, policies alone have done more to harm the Republican party, than any Democrat ever could. He is dangerous, and he cannot be trusted. Bush was never a Uniter, as he claimed. He has been a Campaigner, because that is all he knows how to do relatively successfully.

Answer 2

Solar energy has a cost of production of more than  10 times the cost of other forms of energy production.

the President has not put a freeze on commercial solar energy production.

If you disagree you must provide proof of that.

At this point it appears to me that you are making this up.

Solar enrgy is an expensive toy for wealthy people who can afford it.

That is the reason that you do not see more solar energy production.

Solar energy is not offordable for anyone other than the very wealthy who have more dollars than sense.
