I see that you're reacting as most fervently religious people act when their faith is attacked with reason and logic and facts. You lash out.
Look at the numbers with Germany - the costs for electric bills went UP when people started adding solar infrastructure to their homes.
Your invocation of the talisman of
Solar City doesn't help your case. Here is a quote from their website:
Federal, state and local governments offer incredible financial incentives to encourage homeowners to switch to renewable energy. These incentives dramatically lower the cost of a solar system or energy efficiency project. These incentives often make solar power less expensive than power from the utility company.
This company relies on a 50% kickback/subsidy from governments.
The cost of solar isn't cheaper, the cost is shifted to taxpayers. Why should your neighbor have to subsidize your consumption of more expensive solar power through the use of his taxes. Your power consumption is not a public good, meaning that his life isn't improved, nor is the communities, by your own personal consumption habits which they are subsidizing. How would you feel if you had to subsidize his annual vacation to Hawaii with your tax dollars. Personal consumption is personal consumption is personal consumption.
