Maryland . . . . . . Nowhere To Be Found As Other States Pave-Way In Promoting Renewable Energy Initiatives.

Amazing how we aren't allowed to put an offshore oil platform 50 miles from the coast because it is unsightly, but we can put up a wind farm.
Take away the government subsidy for wind generation and the whole wind power system is a non-starter.

What's even more amazing is that Maryland has now banned, off-shore drilling, domestic inland drilling, Chesapeake Bay oil exploration, off-shore Wind Farms, and now even inland parkland is closed for Windfarms.

How does this compare with New Jersey, Delaware, and Virginia. If I were the Governor of any of the adjacent three states I would ban Maryland from participating in any domestic energy talks. Maybe its high time for them to impose economic sanctions on Maryland.

Maryland Legislature. . . are you listening?
