Default Mea culpa: yes, they *do* make solar panels w/concentrators

Which brings up an interesting idea: Instead of the government providing a
tax holiday for windmills or solar panels, how about the government LOAN
people the money to build these things? Individuals could repay the loan
with the money they save in energy costs. Unless, of course, the savings are
not enough to cover the note...


Having the government enter the bad loan business hasn't already
created a big enough mess for you?
