joinca User ID: 23928361 United States 11/07/2012 03:23 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | The Coming 'Obama Recession' Of 2013 After campaigning hard for his new soak-the-rich tax increases, President Obama—er, I mean President Franklin D. Roosevelt—won reelection in 1936. A solid Democratic Congress dutifully passed the tax hikes, which quickly led to what’s known as the “Roosevelt recession” of 1937. If President Obama wins his reelection bid and gets his tax increases implemented, we will get the “Obama recession” of 2013. The full article is here: [link to www.forbes.com] "The government will one day be corrupt and full of liars, and the people will flock to the one that tells the truth." - “Tyranny is defined as that which is legal for the government but illegal for the citizenry.” - "The democracy will cease to exist when you take away from those who are willing to work and give to those who would not." - "I predict future happiness for Americans if they can prevent the government from wasting the labors of the people under the pretense of taking care of them." - "A Country with no Border, is not a country" -- Thomas Jefferson We MUST NEVER forget what Kamala Harris did to Justice Kavanaugh & his family! |

It's completely feasible for "normal" people. It's called a solar lease and you should look into it. Many large solar companies offer it and it's a "miracle solution" at ZERO money down. I've had it installed on my home for FREE and my attic roof reinforced for FREE and I pay way less for electricity now and I get a reimbursement at the end of every year for power Ive sold back to the electric company so yes I do laugh all the way to the bank and no I'm not full of shit, friend. That's because you aren't counting the solar credit uncle sugar gave the installer. Tax dollars. Your scheme socializes the cost and privatizes the profit, the way Wall Street does math. Redistribution fails because it creates NOTHING. No free lunch, never was - never will be. Without the Federal incentives you would not have your solar lease. Does nothing? It takes my home about 90% off coal fired plants and uses power from a renewable source. Fed incentives are hardly a windfall where I live buddy. Sure the solar company gets them with a lease but with life insurance on the system including a multithousand dollar sunny boy inverter that will need replaced every 10 years, I'll take that deal. I come out WAY ahead and so does the planet and every living thing on it. No, you are riding the coat tails of taxpayers. Shuffling bucks is a shell game. It is a deal to entice you to play but individuals win, not the planet. You are incorrect about the Federal incentives. It only pencils because of the incentives. Riding tax payer coat tails? Are you serious buddy? I'm a taxpayer, ass napkin. Probably longer than you've been alive. The incentives are minimal. I know the contract I signed, I read it. You? You didn't read shit of it.

Anonymous Coward User ID: 18028121 Australia 11/07/2012 06:10 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | what's the big deal? Quoting: ^TrInItY^ all you need is $250,000 and a spare football field at your house and you can go solar! everyones doing it! it's the way of the future! Doesn't take that much space, I have plenty on my roof and I can sell the excess back to the grid. Now for those city-dwelling Obama voters who live in apartments, I guess they are truly fucked, but they voted for it so they should enjoy it. lol just because you have a few solar panels on your roof does NOT make you fully energy independent you have a GRID TIE system that does NOT provide for all your power needs AT ALL and you know that as you STILL get a power bill I happen to be 100% off grid and I KNOW what it takes to do it... Solar is not practical in real world practice take it from someone who has actually done it I'm glad I did because I'm self sufficient but for the average person in the average neighborhood it just aint happening Good point Trin. A few points of my own: 1. I am not an average person in an average neighborhood. I know what I'm talking about, about this. I even know more than you do about it, no offense. I've worked in the energy industry and am an electrical engineer. 2. I am not trying to get off the grid with this system. I don't need to, to remove the effect of Obamaprices from my life. All I need to do is, on the average, to feed back the same amount to the grid as I take at other times. 3. I am currently off the grid anyway. I am in the NYC suburbs which, as you've heard, has had some recent weather events. A week after Sandy and I am still running off my gasoline generator. 4. Being off the grid with solar would be nice, but quite expensive because of mainly the batteries to store sufficient power. A grid-tie system, with emergy energy storage via gasoline or propane rather than batteries, seems reasonable to me at current prices. With you %100 on that. Here in Oz it costs about $8,000 for a 5 Kilowatt inverter and 16 panels, thats enough for an average family. Power created above use gets you a cheque from the energy company. Off grid for a families needs runs at $63,000 to start up because the batteries are expensive so on grid feed back is a good way to go. |
