We Don’t Need No Stinking Giant Fans

Erika Johnsen;

With Congress and the White House currently concentrating their laser-like focus on averting (or not averting, as the case may be) the fiscal cliff, the fate of various tax extenders is still very much up in the air, including the wind industry’s precious production tax credit (which covers about 30 percent of wind power’s costs — no wonder they’re so keen on keeping it around). The wind lobby is working overtime to convince Congress to pass an extension before the clock runs out on December 31st, but most lawmakers’ concerns are about the bigger fish we still need to fry before the end of the year.

  1. More and more I’m convinced it might be a good thing for the fiscal cliff to happen. This is just one of a host of useless tax privileges that will mercifully drown at the bottom of the waterfall.

  2. There is definitely a silver lining to this fiscal cliff if it gets some of these tree hugging leeches off the taxpayers back.
