Right now, both the buyer and the seller knows there is 'free' taxpayer
money that's going to be transferred from the taxpayers/gov to the sellers/installers.
The money transfer is not greatly benefiting the buyer, since his tax break
or rebate is most likely already built into the installed price.
So, imagine a product without the 'redistribution' of taxpayers dollars.
You want to buy some pecans, so you look for the best quality
at a price you can afford. You go to the market and pick what
you want, and buy it. Very simple.
No money was stolen from other people.. Seems like a nice idea eh?
It is a nice idea, because those the young folks down the road,
cooking those Big Macs, don't have to help pay for my pecans.
Why should they?
The government is saying to 'rich' people, If you install Solar,
we will take other taxpayer's money and help you pay for those panels..
Some of those other taxpayers live in apartments and can't buy solar..
And maybe can't even afford to buy their kids good shoes.
Is giving their tax dollars away, fair to them?
It's like a pyramid scam. If you buy in early on, you win!
Everyone else pays for you.
But, if everyone jumps on it, it has to be canceled.
I think you know why..
