Yes, the enviros can complain that coal gets more of a subsidy than solar; true enough. Add the subsidies for the top 4 items vs the renewables? No contest – fossil fuels get $4.557 billion while renewables get $5.954 Billion. In the end, however, is what is the bang for the buck. It is clear – solar and wind subsidies get very little for the hard earned taxpayer dollars.

Co-founder of GraniteGrok, my concern is around Individual Liberty and Freedom and how the Government is taking that away. As an evangelical Christian and Conservative with small "L" libertarian leanings, my fight is with Progressives forcing a collectivized, secular humanistic future upon us. As a TEA Party activist, citizen journalist, and pundit!, my goal is to use the New Media to advance the radical notions of America's Founders back into our culture.
