Solar panels could destroy U.S. utilities, according to U.S. utilities

73. Ten reasons solar energy is all wrong:

Reason Number One:

Solar energy is produced in a giant off-shore nuclear furnace with absolutely no containment structure. Solar energy is, in fact, the ONLY energy source that's 100% imported. It's un-American!



Reason Number Two:

Solar energy is prone to radiation leaks. Even where solar energy plants are running "properly," much of the solar radiation still leaks out all over the place.



Reason Number Three:

Solar energy is communist. It can be made by hippies in their backyard without suitable profit margins for capitalist corporations.



Reason Number Four:

Solar energy violates interstate commerce laws. With all that energy spreading out all OVER the place, it is often transported across state lines without a license. It's UNCONSTITUTIONAL!



Reason Number Five:

Solar energy encourages corruption of youth. Because of the lack of suitable containment, the solar energy spreads out all over, not just in specific locations, resulting in all sorts of dirty, disreputable youth behavior outdoors, without proper supervision. Like roller blading. PROTECT YOUR CHILDREN!



Reason Number Six:

Solar energy causes cancer. Studies have shown that thousands of people have already contracted skin cancer from this dirty, dangerous, hazardous energy source.



Reason Number Seven:

Solar energy causes a dangerous buildup of vitamin D under the skin, undercutting margins for reputable pharmaceutical companies that know how to medicate you much better.



Reason Number Eight:

Solar energy is unreliable. Half the time it doesn't even work. At night millions find themselves walking around in total darkness!



Reason Number Nine:

Solar energy is extremely vulnerable to weather interference. You just can't TRUST it.



Reason Number Ten:

Solar energy is very inefficient. It contains lots of frequencies you can't even see, like infrared. These frequencies heat up the planet too, causing global warming. Fossil fuels contain NO infrared radiation. Coal, for instance, doesn't have light at all. It's jet black in color.


So stick with PROVEN, RELIABLE, SAFE nuclear, coal and oil.
