#1 Remember solar is not 'clean' or 'safe' energy. Tens of thousands die around the world every year from sun exposure related cancers.

#2 Did anyone ask him how much does he think tuition would be raised to cover this dirty energy tax?

Or does he just want to stick it to the taxpayers?

#3 Procopius2k
A rather specious argument. They'd die from the sun regardless of how much time people put into harvesting it's energy.

The argument against solar lies in how much it costs to collect enough energy to make the product. The answer is longer than the product lasts.

#5 The argument against solar lies in how much it costs to collect enough energy to make the product. I ate plenty of 'maters & peppers produced by solar energy last summer. My plants have died of frost, but I still came out ahead.

#7 The argument is in reply to those who do indeed label solar as safe and clean and ignore that there's a difference between those claims and "there's nothing you can do about it, so you might was well take advantage of it".

#8 Those plants are analogous to America Taxpayers... I get your point.
