Alternative fuel sources are so cumbersome, expensive and, well, so undesired that Japan has decided to reinstate its solar panel subsidy. The country is experiencing delays in cutting its greenhouse gas emissions as the world’s fifth largest emitter, and is reinstating subsidies that were first cut back in March 2006 after poor demand for solar panels. Japan is offering 70,000 yen (about $774.50 US dollars) for each kilowatt of equipment installed. By the way, Japan’s highest tax bracket is 40% while in the U.S. the highest is 35%.

A social and fiscal conservative, I scour the news for information that disputes the current man-made global warming indoctrination that takes place around the world. I take a rather sarcastic approach to reporting on the nonsense being spewed by the talking heads in the media and the governments around the world.
This is awesome! Japanese people are so smart! I knew it was gonna be the first country to become green
