Horst von Buttlar writes at the online Financial Times Deutschland a piece called: Wind Energy: The Dirty Secret of the Energy Transformation.
In the aftermath of Fukushima and Al Gore’s Inconvenient Truth, Germany rushed madly, in a state of collective hysteria, to alternative energies, ignoring all warnings that it would cost a bundle and wouldn’t work. Now with the big bills rolling in, the country is beginning to show some signs of returning to a little sanity.
“…is exposing the well-hidden secret that it has long been a huge redistribution program from the bottom up…”
Hidden? Are you serious? Many articles pointed up the ‘subsidy farm’ aspect of all this so-called alternate energy boondoggle years and years ago. The LSM, of course, wouldn’t put it on the ten o’clock news where the moron masses get their ‘news’ because it didn’t fit their feeling good about themselves for saving the world once again. Of course facts prove otherwise, but for libs it’s only about feelings, not actual results so – mission accomplished.
