The libs don't want this stuff in their neighborhoods because they know the schemes are not feasible. Why spoil the view for something that doesn't work, unless it is someone else's view?

It does work, especially offshore where the wind is strong, constant and can be converted into competitively-priced energy. The only reason the Massachusetts limousine liberals don't want it near Nantucket is NIMBY-ism.

It does work,...

Perhaps I should have said, "Not economically feasible. There are many hitches and catches in getting electricity generated and distributed. From all I have read, that is not yet the case with (being economically feasible) wind or solar. Perhaps with a constant ocean breeze the chances are better but still not guaranteed.
