You want to compare the cost of a wind turbine to the cost of a nuclear or fossil fuel power plant ... as if the out put was anywhere close. That just shows how stupid you are. I asked you to compare the cost of the construction and raw materials needed for wind power.......... If wind turbines made economic sense as you imply, they wouldn't need to be mandated. Oils been heavily taxed for decades. The things liberals call o&g subsidies are almost all normal deductions all industries get. Say, I recall that despite the heavy taxation, you still find it economical to heat with fuel oil.

Democrats Propose Elimination of ‘Husband’ & ‘Wife’ in Federal Law Of course. Those are hateful exclusionary words. So are father and mother. Shep, do you realize you'll have to stop calling your wife your wife eventually? You'll be able to say partner or spouse, but not wife. Too Offensive 7.10.2015 News Paul Bois Over two dozen Democratic lawmakers have determined the words "husband" and "wife" too oppressive and exclusionary to be used in federal law, and have now proposed to replace them with gender-neutral words like "spouse," "partner" or "married couple." ..... According to Rep. Lois Capps (D-CA) words like "husband" and "wife" in federal law no longer have meaning because the Supreme Court declared same-sex marriage a constitutional right, and to keep the laws written that way implies discrimination. "The Amend the Code for Marriage Equality Act recognizes that the words in our laws have meaning and can continue to reflect prejudice and discrimination even when rendered null by our highest courts," Capps said. "Our values as a country are reflected in our laws. I authored this bill because it is imperative that our federal code reflect the equality of all marriages." ........... http://www.truthrevolt.org/news/democrats-propose-elimination-husband-wife-federal-law
