I heard on the radio the other day, and I may have the numbers a bit confused, but the general idea is correctly represented---
That in spite of if the massive government subsidies paid to the alternative fuel industry, that wind energy production accounts for 0.9% of the total US energy use, and solar accounts for 0.1% with much of that being heating of swimming pools.

The question than becomes, at this particular time of economic malaise, is this the best way to spend money on energy production? Remember, we are broke--or rather deep in debt because we already spend money we do not have.
