    Florida’s solar amendment designed to mislead voters.

    http://www.miamiherald.com/news/…

    • some people suck hardsince1979
    • people need to make the intelligent choice.omg
    • but i still favor a future using solar energyomg
    • sounds like a good plan. why should solar power be subsidized by the many and poor for the rich and few who can afford the infrastructure for profitdeathboy
    • for once self interested protectionism is actual serving the best interestsdeathboy
    • because the people are trying to get shit done. misleading people is not the way to accomplish shit. don't you think? you like misled?since1979
    • *being misled? lol.since1979
    • deathboy, i don't think the entire solar power has to be subsidized. I think the gov't can partake in the plan since it has good resources of space and moneyomg
    • government investing into itself for things like self driving cars nationwide powered by solar sounds great.omg
    • since1979 im not sure about the misleading. Not my state and not familiar with how they are being solddeathboy
    • just commenting on the actual policy. I did miss that they didnt open possibility for other people to sell direct. but i can see why a gov monopoly might havedeathboy
    • issue with that. much like cabbie monopolies vs uber. different playing rules create uncompetitive advantages. if they allowed itdeathboy
    • they might have to forego profit controls on the regulated power companies. who knows what happens by what rule makers. could be good or baddeathboy
    • naw gov should not be involved. space can be purchased privately and if its a good thing people will private investdeathboy
    • and self driving cars and solar panel sounds great but at what cost? and to whom? personally they dont sound great to me and i would spend a dimedeathboy
    • well maybe on solar panels if the infrastructure cost was an investment that would yield savings and was affordable withotu any subsidization bubblesdeathboy
