Wind Costs in DenmarkThis story from Denmark shows wind to be less than ideal. A critical point is that a green job is actually subsidized by the taxes and stipends encouraging development. Thus a move from a traditional job to green wind is a double hit on the economy, taking a revenue generator to a revenue consumer. http://www.thenewamerican.com/index.php/tech-mainmenu-30/energy/1890-danish-wind-power-overblown …The other big mistake that the United States is being pushed toward by environmentalists and their patron in the White House is that of “green jobs.” Jobs in the wind industry are always subsidized. When a worker in a non-subsidized industry moves into a subsidized one, there is a double hit on the economy: The “green” job requires the government to take capital from the economy, and the loss of the non-subsidized job precludes the creation of wealth. Much as in Spain where “green jobs” can require a subsidy of $1,000,000 per job, wind-related jobs in Denmark are subsidized at the rate of 175 to 250 percent above average pay, roughly costing taxpayers $90,000 to $140,00 for each “green” employee. …
