14. Good going!
You're promoting information that was used to enrich ENRON and Ken Lay, but that electrical engineers almost universally agree, provided no public benefit at great cost to taxpayers.

Wind power does not work. It's loud, destroys property values, endangers human health, and is terribly unreliable. Rich Republicans love it because it's heavily subsidized, but it can never meet America's energy needs.

See the North Texas Wind Resistance Alliance: http://www.nortexwind.org/index.htm

or

I feel like a complete sucker for ever having supported wind energy. Our progressive and ecologically-friendly desire for renewable sources of energy was used against against us with wind to enrich the already-wealthy at the public trough. There's a reason France built 58 nuclear power plants instead. Germany and Denmark are both regretting investing so much money into wind power. It was a mistake.

Wind power is a bad idea.

The United States is a LIBERAL Country.
