Carbon taxes?  Are they the source of money used to subsidize the solar panels that they install  on buildings that are about to be torn down and on roofs that are already leaking and need to be repaired? Or does that money come from high electricity rates?  Is this a subsidy for a secret social program to put people to work? Instead of building "bridges to nowhere", today's high tech alternative is to install solar panels on roofs everywhere no matter that the rest of the building is in complete disrepair?
