   Grover Norquist and the Koch Brothers (and Republicans/Fox “news” viewers) are NOT anti-tax. They are anti INCOME tax.
   -
   They are just fine with sales tax increases and payroll tax increases.
   -
   And, of course, this has nothing to do with class warfare.

   We already tax wind generated electricity, why not tax solar converted electricity ?

   So are you 1st going to admit that taxes are being used by mommy government to manipulate behavior?
   2nd “solar mandates” is a bad idea. Free market should dictate. But wait solar is still expensive and not as cost effective, so let us make mommy government subsidize what it is mandating. Oh but then since this is so great and the home owner can make money by selling it back we should also let them do that. And you now call the guy who points out that hey, this is wrong, a bad guy and polluter? And solyndra worked and was about magic green job and not about a magic donor pay out with out tax stimulus money.

   Of course this will change when the Koch Brothers buy out ALL the solar panel Manufacturers!
   Then they will be all for Solar…just as long as THEY end up making money from it.

   @masterskrain

   Just as Waren buffet after yet another oil train derailment, he buys stock in the pipeline. Now that a rich democrat has an interest we hear how good the pipeline is?

   Koch Industries makes over 100 billion annually. It is the second largest business in the US. Obviously they should be able to tell the rest of us what to believe.

   But but we must make people buy it to save the earth and all. That is why we the tax payer should pay for part or all of someone elses power supply.

    The Koch brothers employ thousands of people and actually create things of value. They contribute to many causes that are not political. They have as much right to their causes as the left side of the political spectrum.

    The oil companies are the richest corporations the world has ever seen, and they get special tax breaks from the government. Saving the ability of humans to grow their own food is more important than protecting the oil and gas industry’s taxpayer funded profits. Great cartoon, by the way. I love the last panel.

    Like an alcoholic tearing his house apart for a bottle he thinks he stashed, the oil industry is tearing up the landscape and poisoning the water for one last jolt of petroleum. As it gets more and more expensive, solar and wind look better and better.

    Mr. King, that hoax report is almost as funny as the GOP guy who said that wind power was going to use up all the wind!

    Still no news story about billionare hedge fund manager,Tom Styer paying the dems $100 million to talk about global warming.
    Obama and Reid both did like they were paid to do.

    The term “two faced” comes to mind.
    Dems are for the highest donor and expect us to believe that they aren’t that way.

    This is a joke, of course. It must be. Please tell me it’s a joke.
