Since 2015, more than 600 renewable energy projects have been halted as a result of local opposition. Michigan recently joined Illinois, New York and California, each with laws that allow the state to override local actions against renewable energy projects. In January, Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker signed a bill that stops local governments from limiting or banning wind and solar power.
“Green” energy is unreliable, expensive, and wouldn’t exist without government subsidies (our taxes). Localities should have a right to resist this economic suicide.

The people pushing these projects don’t seem to understand the concept of representative government
They understand, they just don’t think that it applies to their decisions, for the greater good. They have to destroy democracy to save it.

And just look at that landscape. A total desecration of some beautiful country side. Would you rather look at that monstrosity or one lonely smokestack off in the horizon?

Eagles killed by wind turbines. Real green of ya.
Don’t bother the greenies with facts. They don’t care.
There isn’t much to admire about the man. A trust fund baby that likes to tell everyone else what to do. Just go away already.
He also tried to bribe Blago to get Obama’s vacated Illinois Senate seat!!
On what basis do you say that?
Not exactly a bribe but more of a request with possible remunerations to be determined at a later date never mentioned but possibly implied for a different position.
