"it's still cheaper to pay for electricity from the utilities than it is to install solar panels"

Not according to THIS Republican Bush voter:

"The Leiningers, who paid Borrego Solar $39,000 for their system after a $24,000 rebate, figure their system will pay for itself in a dozen years — assuming residential electricity rates do not increase, as they have by 37 percent since 1998. Dr. Leininger estimated that his system had reduced his household carbon emissions by nearly 30 tons since it was installed in June, and that it was well on its way to zeroing out."

Read the whole article. Your logic is just like the idiot that still buy incandescent bulbs instead of CF bulbs - penny wise, pound foolish.
