Greed - How much is enough?

For some like the Koch brothers there is never enough, and provide a perfect reason why the ‘Hostile Profit/Prophet exists; environmental, economic and ethical abuses all in one example. While the conscientious are trying to green the environment and save the planet the Koch bros demand a tax on the sun ow.ly/3khVxs    and these idiots in Oklahoma go along with this insanity. Most utilities not only welcome solar supplements from private parties to their grid, they offer subsidies, grants etc. This is because they have reached the capacity they were designed for in normal use, to provide increased capacity for increasing peak demand utilities have to choose between building more infrastructure or acquire less expensive and environmentally friendly energy from other sources. While most utilities take option #2, the Kochs have convinced Oklahomans that these alternate sources should be charged for using the grid to distribute their power, they want to tax the sun so the dirty petroleum they peddle will seem more attractive. My guess is that the Kochs appealed to the Okies fear that somehow going green would threaten their traditionally petroleum based economy. Texans while no greener than Okies by disposition welcome the opportunity to make money in addition to petroleum business not instead of, solar and wind farms everywhere.
