Germany Debates Subsidies for Solar Industry from the NY Times.
Germany has built up a huge solar industry. Germany derives 14.2 of it's electricty from renewable energy.
If I am reading the article right, the fight is over adding an extra $12.32 to a monthly electricity bill, and somehow this amount would alienate people.
So what will $12.32 buy you? A dinner at some mid-market restaurants. A meal for three at McDonalds. Starbucks for three people.
Conclusion - I question the assertion that an extra $12.32 a month would alienate anyone.
