And that's why we continue to get ripped off by the politicians in this
state. Cause guys like you like to hand over money to the politicians
and then have them decide when and if to give it back to you. . . . ,

I don't really want them to give it back to me because I am not ready to
install a solar system. But, I am willing to contribute toward a fund that
will help subsidize you or someone else who is willing to invest their own
money in a solar system. I think of it as seed money or as an incentive to
help get more solar systems up and running. I don't want to support someone
buying a luxury Mercedes even if it gets high mileage because there is new
real new technology being brought online by doing that. But I would support
partially subsidizing you or others in purchasing a new-technology hybrid
vehicle. My thinking is that until these new environmentally friendly
technologies actually start being used, the cost of purchasing them will
remain high. But if they come into more common use, the costs will come
down and more and more people will then opt for those systems.

Of course, I know we don't agree on this.
