More on windmill farm

A law was passed last year in congress specifically for the benefit of the company trying to build the windmills in the sound. It was in the print media the other day. It read that once the initial permits are issued no public hearings had to be held. The law was attached to some other bill of greater importance and went unnoticed the small article said. Maybe this is one of the reasons why Romney said he will veto the farm given the chance. I myself think this is extrordinarily arrogant on the part of a private concern trying to take public land for the benefit of their stockholders first and the rate paying public second.

My other thought is, does anybody think electric rates will be any cheaper or electricity anymore available because of the proposed windmills?
