A huge part of this quick payback is the New jersey policy of letting homeowners sell their own clean energy credits.
Serious campaigning needs to be done to get this incorporated into every states energy policy for green energy.
Here in Wisconsin the power company gets those credits, but are they the ones who pay for the system? nope.
It's little details of public policy hardly even noticed by legislators that make the difference to a green energy revolution. Our representatives do not even read the legislation they vote on. So maybe a public campaign that makes them stand up and do the right thing might help.
Almost all legislation is written by industry lobbyists, that's the sad truth. Corporate "citizens" are the only ones represented by politics for hire. And they are not even real citizens.
Has a corporate "citizen", like enron or halliburton, ever been sentenced to prison? That's impossible right?
So why do these "citizens" have more rights than the rest of US? A perrmanent get out of jail free card. No wonder they steal the mega sums they do.
