A LETTER (apparently from Australia) SOLICITING A KNEE-JERK RESPONSE
Dear Danny
The
wind industry employs 75,000 Americans. And right now, a bill to
protect those jobs isn't going anywhere, because Speaker of the House
John Boehner -- who sets the calendar for the House of Representatives
-- doesn't want to schedule it for an up-or-down vote.
Hey Boehner -- what are you waiting for?
These good-paying jobs for skilled workers in manufacturing, installation, and maintenance
Hey Boehner -- what are you waiting for?
These good-paying jobs for skilled workers in manufacturing, installation, and maintenance
are
critical for helping our country move out of the outdated energy
economy of previous decades. If anything, we should be adding jobs in
this and other renewable energy industries. But instead, we're letting
these jobs be lost.
Tea party pressure is causing John Boehner and other House members to let the wind industry die. But what does that mean for the future of this country? We must prevent the House from playing a game of chicken with our economy and our future. It's time we put as much pressure on Boehner as the tea party has! Please sign the petition now.
Thank you for taking action,

Dear Emily
I'd be the last guy to support John Boehner. But I don't think the wind energy proponents have researched the downside of windmills. 400 feet tall (think forty-storey building), blades more than a hundred feet long, the ends of which are moving at well over 100 mph. Constant whoompf-whoompf of noise 24/7, harmful to the physical and psychological health of those living near them. Tons and tons of concrete poured to make the pads on which they are anchored. You seem to be writing from Australia, which has a lot more unused and unusable space than America.
I have only one horse in this race... the health and well-being of not 75,000 workers, but 350 million (and counting) Americans. Let's put 75,000 people to work on Solar.
