Look at any of the big wind farms in the Midwest. They are horrible eyesores and destroy the vista wherever they can be seen. And on top of that they are totally unreliable sources of power. So we should put them in Lake Michigan? Vomit.

“This is an opportunity for us to re-engage an industrial revolution that is built on a dream.” What a crock. Should be corrected to “….built on a complete failure to understand the laws of physics.” Windmills work at best 45% of the time. Solar panels work at best 40% of the time. Nuclear is the only solution but these greenies are too dumb to understand anything technically more complex than an iphone charger plug.

What an unholy thing to do to our lakefront.
Ranks right up there with the Obama edifice.
