Just feels like a bad business decision that limits potential job growth.
Yeah, the GOP has long since stopped caring about fiscal responsibility, if they ever actually did. It’s all about regressive vice signaling now, consequences be damned!
Fucking hell, what reason is there to ban wind power. It’s like if a thing is remotely positive these idiots go straight to banning it.
Yeah, it’s cheap, doesn’t produce air pollution, and doesn’t need fuel. Even if you don’t believe that global warming is a thing, it has a lot of benefits.
Gee, let’s ban one of the forms of power that can keep coastal states from going the way of Atlantis. Let’s see how that plays out.
Republicans don’t believe that global warming is a thing.
The power companies, Duke and FPL, have the Florida legislature in their pocket. No way to get renewables without their piece of the pie.
I unfortunately live in Florida. Florida Power and Light took over, and everyone hates it. People are getting power bills for thousands of dollars. They sent out a newsletter right after the takeover saying that prices would go up temporarily and then be lower than they were before. Still waiting for that price drop. I try to tell the MAGAs that FPL is one of DeSantis’s major campaign contributors, but the most reasonable reply I got is “well it would probably be even worse if the democrats were doing it.” I’m so tired of everything.
Are US energy providers allowed to offer different prices in different states, e.g. lower prices in states where they can produce lots of cheap wind energy?
