I have nothing against renewables but I would like to have seen them find their way into the economy without any government subsidies.
That wouldn't happen. They are too expensive, unreliable and useless without a backup system. They take up too much land, resources and have too short of a usable life cycle to be of any practical use.

Easily explained. Those people are hopelessly stupid.

So you are saying the Oil and Gas industry never benefitted from any government subsidies or perks?
No. Thats not what is being stated. Sorry.

I think the questioner is conflating subsidy with basic deductions that is available to every business.
It's the "green energy" field that actually receives subsidies in the form of taxpayer dollars for trying to create a viable product where one doesn't exist.

So 30 cents a kW-hr. I'm paying 8 cents a kW-he in Houston. Have fun with that Cali.

What are you basing that claim on?

You never seem to be in threads that dale and texags7 make that consist of the fact since it’s cold one day then climate change is complete and utter bull shite.
You're a disingenuous hack.
Can you post 1 time that I made that claim.

This was never claimed to be the case.

Because that is essentially the government choosing winners and trying to spur economic growth artificially?
How so?

Meanwhile if you closely from the offshore rig in Huntington Beach you can see the nicely camouflaged pump jacks slowly squeezing the oil from the ground.

I have no problem with renewables as long as the cost does not outweigh the benefit and they can be done without massive government subsidies.

Exactly. Some estimates say we have about 150 years worth.

So let's reduce the earth's population to that of 100 years ago.
Returning to that population would do far more good for the planet than any regulation will.

Good for California if that's what they want.
States rights is an important part of our system.
