For the time being yes; my parents are in their autumn years, and once they’re gone, I’ll be leaving. What’s left of my family is here, some property up north, beyond that I have no reason to stay.
Knowing that, we should all advocate for grid power to be fueled by energy that's both cheap and dependable (i.e. hydro and coal) because it's never a matter of what's "clean" energy: the Dims will eventually try to ban anything that we today call "clean" just like they're now trying to ban what they used to call "clean burning natural gas" and like California interferes with hydro power. Since whatever energy source for power plants will be deemed unclean by the eco-religious Dims, we should quit trying to satisfy their incessant demands and go with what works best and cheapest for grid power.
And until we win that argument, each of us should try to make his home as energy independent as we can so that energy policies are one less way the Dims can control your family. Which is why we have solar for our home where it works well for us in Alabama. Of course, this article is about Michigan where I doubt solar works half as well.
2W3 (World War 3) will bring that to an end.
Michigan is one of the most cloudy places on the planet. Solar would not work year ‘round.
Those green lawmakers have no concept for the physics of energy. For them, a kilo-watt is an extinct dinosaur of the species, Killosaurus Rex, an advanced version of frillosaursus and killosaursus (poison shooting dinosaurs). Their ignorance is going to cause America to go extinct, spitting poison. The Greenweenie politicians think power is the same power that works when they snap their fingers for the masses who catch the bone like their trained dogs. Americans will give it a try and, when it fails, will revolt like earlier Americans because of a 3% tax on tea.
Michigan isn’t capable of producing enough wind and solar. Just look back at their attempt to build a nuke in Midland and you’ll figure out they can’t do that either.
I see. Relocating would be most difficult.
They’ve already done it in NYS.
Note to MI: You can’t say you weren’t warned.
That trend doesn’t sound good.
I asked “why?” but of course a relocating decision is difficult and can be problematic beyond the decision to abandon the family area: Such as selling your home & property for an equitible return and finding similar or better in another area at a resonable price. Though, if down-sizing that can help tilt the equation in your favor.
I am looking, though.
