Rachel Maddow: Oklahoma’s ‘sun tax’ law means it’s a threat to Koch Brothers’ allies

Quote:
“Maybe this means that alternative energy — like solar energy — is now viable enough to be an actual threat to the bottom line of the oil and gas and coal industries. We say it’s the four stages, right? First they ignore you, then they laugh at you, then they fight you, then you win. Well, solar has apparently moved on from being ignored or laughed at, and now they’re fighting it.”


So, is this where it's all headed...???

With their dread power that will "destabilize" the power consumption (if not disappear), someone against what logic dictates, has proposed burying the photovoltaic industry (now it is more necessary than ever) in a bottomless pit, sometime in 2010 someone has decided to privatize the sun .... yes yes you read correctly, in Spain totally unlike Europe, a toll who generate electricity is imposed and injected to the line ... instead of receiving a profit, but that's not all, if you get caught collecting photons of sunlight for your own use you can drop a fine of 30 million euros. Such as if it were a drug. Commit the sacrilege of being independent can be very expensive energy, the sun is now only for the privileged few and electric companies in which directors are of ex-presidents and ex-ministers dualistic ppsoe party.
