“We are on the cusp of a new era”

Democratic presidential candidate Hillary Clinton on Sunday made tackling climate change one of her key goals were she to enter the White House, pledging to have more than half a billion solar panels installed nationwide by the end of her first term in office.

Clinton also called for a major increase in other renewable-energy sources, saying she wants every U.S. home to be powered by clean energy within a decade, reports Reuters.

“I want more wind, more solar, more advanced biofuels, more energy efficiency,” she said at a weekend rally in Iowa. “And I’ve got to tell you, people who argue against this are just not paying attention.”

The two goals were unveiled in a video posted to Clinton’s campaign website Sunday, and are part of a comprehensive agenda on climate change that will be laid out over the next few months.

I hate to ask, but who exactly is going to pay for all these solar panels????
The Feds of course!!
IT'S FREE MONEY!!!!!

And who is going to compel property owners to install and use them???
THE JUSTICE DEPARTMENT, THE FBI, THE IRS, THE EPA, THE SOUTHERN POVERTY LAW CENTER...
You get the drift...

And what happens to someone who says no thank you, we don’t want solar???
RE-EDUCATION CAMPS FOR CLIMATE CHANGE HERESY!

“what happens to someone who says no thank you, we don’t want solar”

Productive citizens will pay a stiff tax penalty, like O’Bammycare, comrade.

500 Million? Why frig around?

Let’s completely surround the planet with them so “The Sun Never Sets” on the green-weenie empire.

Plus, the eternal shade from the shield of panels would stop “Global Warming” in its tracks.

There won’t be a bird left in the sky as they fly through those frying rays. Hillary will cause mass extinction of all migratory birds. Truly bizarre.

Read the words. It’s couched as an appeal to tree huggers, but she stuck “biofuels” in the middle.

Biofuels, which even Fidel Castro has condemned, = corn = $$$$ for Iowa farmers.

Good point. when the solar panels are buried in snow, how do they expect someone to shovel the snow from around the panels on the roof?

Will my roof solar be free? Will whatever I save on my electric bill be lost to other new taxes?

Ignorant, Arrogant, Delusional and Ugly are no way to go through your last few years of life.
This *itch is literally insane!

wonderful. We would like to know the out put in watts of the solar array that powered her house and e mail server farm in Chappaqua.

I feel sure if she looked at the solar array schematic she could find the values for various degrees of sunlight and cloud cover.

I would also like to know the date and location of her last abortion

If you vote for me, I’ll give you all the candy you can imagine! And no mode homework! Vote Hillary!
That’s pretty much rat voters mentality.
