So the largest incentive for solar is the 30% federal tax credit that can be used by a solar investor or even a homeowner. So you have no problem with solar incentives then?
The reason that coal is in trouble is because of the free market. New technology in fracking has made natural gas less expensive than coal.
So why should Trump use tax dollars of hard working Americans to save an industry that can't compete in a free market?
there should be no tax dollars used to save one market from another.
for example elon musk has gotten billions of dollars (think billions is right we Europeans go about million, milliard, billion etc different) in subsidies. is trhat fair someone who works for GMC, has to pay tax so that the competition could thrive and grow.
this system of spreading out tax dollars to industry also got coal in trouble!
so yeah now that injustice is done it is hard to fix. coal might have been able to compete, might have been able to come up with a free market new solution. but the meddling of the government is also a factor that screwed it up.
so yeah those people are mad at government. look trump is not the best candidate out there. i was for rick perry, cruz and carson. heck all other republican candidates and even jim web are a better choice than trump.
if today free market decided renewable are more proffitable than coal gass oil. i'm ok with that.
problem is with obama meddling this is not true. opec is reducing oil production. so america should beef up production so the price keeps lowering.
DRILL BABBY DRILL!
