What moral questions are involved in energy policy? More precisely, what moral principle or gain justifies picking the pockets of your neighbors to build windmills? Are you one who worships at the altar of Kyoto?

I can't have been that unclear. I was making an analogy that allowing the cost of electricity to be the only deciding factor as to the source is analogous to allowing the financial value of taxed prostitution be the only factor in deciding if it is the right thing to do.

I actually don't believe in global warming and wrote the editor of windpower monthly magazine that I thought it was a big mistake mentioning it all the time. I stated that wind power should be promoted on it's real value as clean, limitless, cost effective energy. Lyn didn't agree with me and thought global warming was/is a real problem.
