Obama's Model Economy Nationalizes The Sun


Yes, Spain, the nation that took Green Economic Collapse to unheard of heights--or depths--has outdone even itself. By "Royal Decree" it has nationalized the Sun--and will fine anyone collecting their own sunlight.
"If you get caught collecting photons of sunlight for your own use, you can be fined as much as 30 million euros...If you were thinking the best energy option was to buy some solar panels that were down 80% in price, you can forget about it."
Bwuhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha. So, how's the Spanish solar industry taking this?
"Of all the possible scenarios, this is the worst," said Jose Donoso, president of the Spanish Photovoltaic Union.
Bwuhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.
Even better--it used to take 12 year to break even on a 2.4KW residential installation.* Now it will take 35 years.
Bwuhahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha.

*Actually bullshit, because the panels don't last that long.

Next up, nationalizing the wind. Any unauthorized person caught using the wind for their own purposes will be fine or jailed. If you thought a nice breeze was the best option to cool your house, you can forget about it.

Yup. Eric is right. And, those people who use the sun and the wind to dry their laundry, are probably gonna get a hellfire enema from Obama's drones.
