Getting Off the Grid

I think that any individual or company that manages to stay off the grid for a year should not have to pay taxes for that year. Any company or individual that manages to stay off the grid for 10 years should be tax free forever.

By getting off the grid I mean that on average the company or individual must give more energy back to the electricity grid than they take. Using solar cells, wind mills, bio mass or whatever they must generate their own power.

If Al Gore really believes in Global Warming he should get off the grid. Since I am a capitalist I would have no problem if Al Gore moved to the country and purchased 10 extra acres just to meet his energy needs with solar cells, solar water heaters, windmills and biomass. In fact, every limousine liberal in Hollywood should be required to get off the grid before they are taken seriously on any issue. Stop lecturing us about what we should do and make of yourself a proper example. We need more alternative energy pioneers to give green technologies an extra push.

A tax incentive system is infinitely better than that cap and trade nonsense environmental activists are pushing. The activist are just looking to redistribute the world's wealth. I am looking to actually solve a problem.

Notice too that some in congress act as if they almost understand supply and demand by trying to increase supply. They they do something foolish by suggesting that we use the strategic oil reserve. Anything to avoid drilling, nuclear energy, and clean coal. Anything that will keep us enslaved to foreign oil. Anything that will benefits the foreign nations that must be influencing some in congress. Why else would Congress so consistently act in the best interests of foreign nations and so rarely act in the best interests of the United States?
