In exchange for lifting a 4 decade old oil export ban



quote:

Lawmakers have agreed to lift the four-decade-old ban on crude oil exports as part of a spending and tax package announced by congressional leadership on Tuesday night, according to a GOP lawmaker. In exchange, Republicans agreed to extend a series of expired or expiring renewable energy tax breaks. Both the wind production tax credit and the solar investment tax credit won five-year extensions in the tax and spending package unveiled on Tuesday, the GOP lawmaker said

Even more so when you consider the sunlight is basically being stolen from the plants, not allowing photosynthesis to take place.

Even MORE so when you consider the free loaders who contributed nothing to the initial nuclear fusion but get to reap the benefits from it.

The Fed is not allowing the free market to determine supply and demand for a product. Just my .02.

this is where the real scam is.


Bobby capped the La state tax credit at $25m and made it retroactive to 1/1/15. And no one knows ho much of it has been used up. so the solar companies are continuing to sell to people using the whole 80% tax credit line. But, once the cap is reached, all those who bought after that will only get the 30% from fed.
