Let’s put the crap stories at the top today. Personally, I am tired of this attack on solar hurting poor families. It’s plain wrong and intellectually dishonest. What hurts struggling Americans is the incredible reliance on the most volatile of energy fuels. Solar has zero fuel cost volatility while natural gas has swung between $2 and $14 over the last 10 years. Ratepayers are being PRed into believing that solar hurts low and middle income families while that is exactly where most of the solar jobs are going.
