Actually, the way the “elites” afford alternative energy is to make sure we’re not using it, and taxing us to pay for THEIR use of it.
To a atheistic elitist, no amount of “elite” status is good enough. There’s never enough “difference” between their lifestyles and that of the masses to satisfy them. They constantly strive to increase that “difference”.
