Food Stamps for the Rich (or at least middle class)

A Philly talk show host introduced the topic of food stamp abuse on his show a month or two ago. He was outraged that people who appeared not to need it were getting this kind of welfare but he did not think to look in a mirror.
I agree that a trip to the grocery store is pretty frustrating when I am in line behind a food stamp recipient and see what they are buying.  Even more so when I see them in the parking lot loading those groceries into a nicer car than mine.
But this particular talk host also does ads where he is shilling for one of the solar panel companies and brags that his electric bill is now zero.  He seems oblivious to the fact that the only reason that this might be so is that he was the beneficiary of state and federal subsidies on the purchase and now on the solar energy credits that keep his bill at zero.  Apparently you can get a system for free up there after the company gets government money.  If he actually had to pay for the system his break even point would be about the time this junk would be on its way to the dump.  Solar costs about 2-2½ times coal and natural gas.
This normally conservative commentator seems not to understand that now he too is collecting welfare money but to pay his family’s electric bill instead of grocery bills.  So he gets electric stamps verses food stamps; a distinction without a difference.
If it works up there like it does here, the money for the ongoing subsidies is part of the electric bill that all of his neighbors, rich and poor, pay. The utility charges a premium to pay for the solar energy credits that the state requires them to buy.
The working poor and those on disability and the elderly on social security are paying the inflated electric rates to subsidize this guy and his ilk.
The sad thing is that since he is the one getting the benefit, he apparently does not even see it as welfare. He probably thinks that he deserves it for being smart enough to take it.  It does not occur to him that the only way he is getting free electricity is that his bill is being paid for by others whose option would be not to pay the bill and freeze in the dark.
I wonder if that is much different than what the food stamp recipient in the BMW thinks.

Just Catastrophic!

Here’s a small poll for you — quickly list the most important stories of the day…

I’m sure for many of you, you selected the Fiscal Cliff and the potential impact on the U.S. economy if our government gets this wrong. Many others might have selected the ongoing conflict in the Middle East with Israel once again lined up against a phalanx of Arabic & muslim special interests who redirect their own failings by attacking the successful Jewish state. Others might have selected the President’s trip to Burma and other parts of Asia.

Of course, the primary, local, daily news source in New Castle County selected a story about the World Bank’s President stating that a 7 degree rise in global temperatures over the next 100 years would be CATASTROPHIC!! Yes, that’s right. If global temperatures rise by 7 degrees over the next 100 years, that will be really, really, really, really bad. Of course, if global temperatures go down by 7 degrees over the next 100 years, that would also be really, really, really, really bad, but for different reasons (Chief among these reasons would likely be too much ice).

Yes, the most important story, today, is that The World Bank President, Jim Yong Kim, thinks that we should target 3.5 degrees of increased temperature (He was silent on a reduction of 3.5 degrees — I don’t think that he likes ice). Note, that in the U.S., we can’t even accurately target our inflation rate, but we’re supposed to target the temperature of the planet? Someone better call up the sun, and let it know…

Anyway, how is that whole global warming thing going? From a report this week in the U.K.’s Daily Mail:

The world stopped getting warmer almost 16 years ago, according to new data released last week.

The figures, which have triggered debate among climate scientists, reveal that from the beginning of 1997 until August 2012, there was no discernible rise in aggregate global temperatures.

This means that the ‘plateau’ or ‘pause’ in global warming has now lasted for about the same time as the previous period when temperatures rose, 1980 to 1996. Before that, temperatures had been stable or declining for about 40 years.

Well doesn’t that just stink! No temperature rise, no CATASTROPHE. No CATASTROPHE and Delaware survives.

The article goes on:

But according to increasing numbers of serious climate scientists, it does suggest that the computer models that have for years been predicting imminent doom, such as  those used by the [British] Met Office and the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, are flawed, and that the climate is far more complex than the models assert.

‘The new data confirms the existence of a pause in global warming,’ Professor Judith Curry, chair of the School of Earth and Atmospheric Science at America’s Georgia Tech university, told me yesterday.

‘Climate models are very complex, but they are imperfect and incomplete. Natural variability  [the impact of factors such as long-term temperature cycles in the oceans and the output of the sun] has been shown over the past two decades to have a magnitude that dominates the greenhouse warming effect.

‘It is becoming increasingly apparent that our attribution of warming since 1980 and future projections of climate change needs to consider natural internal variability as a factor of fundamental importance.’

Professor Phil Jones, director of the Climate Research Unit at the University of East Anglia, who found himself at the centre of the ‘Climategate’ scandal over leaked emails three years ago, would not normally be expected to agree with her. Yet on two important points, he did.

The data does suggest a plateau, he admitted, and without a major El Nino event – the sudden, dramatic warming of the southern Pacific which takes place unpredictably and always has a huge effect on global weather – ‘it [the temperature plateau] could go on for a while’.

Like Prof Curry, Prof Jones also admitted that the climate models were imperfect: ‘We don’t fully understand how to input things like changes in the oceans, and because we don’t fully understand it you could say that natural variability is now working to suppress the warming. We don’t know what natural variability is doing.’

The graph can be found below. Looks pretty flat to me, but its more fun to print headlines with “Tipping Point” and “doomsday”, than one that simply says — “Global Warming takes a hiatus”.

Global Temperatures have remained flat for 16 years.

‘We Need Food, We Need Clothing’: Staten Island Residents Plead for Help 3 Days After Sandy – ABC News

The residents of Staten Island are pleading for help from elected officials, begging for gasoline, food and clothing three days after Sandy slammed the New York City borough.

“We’re going to die! We’re going to freeze! We got 90-year-old people!” Donna Solli told visiting officials. “You don’t understand. You gotta get your trucks down here on the corner now. It’s been three days!”

Staten Island was one of the hardest-hit communities in New York City. More than 80,000 residents are still without power. Many are homeless, and at least 19 people died on Staten Island because of the storm.

One of the devastated neighborhoods was overwhelmed by a violent surge of water. Residents described a super-sized wave as high as 20 feet, with water rushing into the streets like rapids.

via ‘We Need Food, We Need Clothing’: Staten Island Residents Plead for Help 3 Days After Sandy – ABC News.

From the President’s 2008 nomination speech:

Because if we are willing to work for it, and fight for it, and believe in it, then I am absolutely certain that generations from now, we will be able to look back and tell our children that this was the moment when we began to provide care for the sick and good jobs to the jobless; this was the moment when the rise of the oceans began to slow and our planet began to heal; 

I guess things just don’t always work out like you planned, huh?

Note: I thought that the Left and the MSM were wrong when they demonized President Bush ’43 over Katrina, and I don’t blame President Obama for Sandy. But, perhaps the Left will learn a lesson about acting like juveniles and making politics out of devastation, although I doubt that they a capable of that maturity.

Democrats Fail To Stop Climate Change — AGAIN!!

The following was in the on-line edition of the Wall Street Journal this evening.

On the same [NY Times] page, Matthew Algeo, author of “The President Is a Sick Man,” describes how severe the weather has become. “On Tuesday, Aug. 22, in the Atlantic Ocean, four hurricanes were swirling simultaneously, an event never before recorded. . . . Wednesday night, one of the hurricanes slammed into New York City. At least 30 people were killed.” Four days later, an even more powerful hurricane killed some 2,000 in and around Savannah, Ga.

What, you don’t remember reading about those storms in the papers? That’s not because reporters are dropping the climate-change ball, but because Algeo is writing history, not news. The hurricanes in question occurred in 1893.

“Grover Cleveland did nothing,” Algeo writes. The 24th president, a Democrat, “opposed government intervention in natural disasters,” which he thought, as he once wrote in a veto message, “encourages the expectation of paternal care on the part of the government and weakens the sturdiness of our national character.” Just like Imaginary Mitt Romney!

But all’s well that ends well. “Into the void stepped Clara Barton, . . . who had founded the American Red Cross 12 years earlier,” Algeo writes. “Her heroic work, especially in the South, saved countless thousands from disease and starvation.”

Yet even though private charity proved sufficient in the absence of federal action, the history Algeo recounts is an indictment of Cleveland. To see why, connect the dots with the Kristof column. America was already experiencing severe weather in 1893. Yet history records that Stephen Grover Cleveland, despite having been president twice, did nothing to stop global warming.

Those who do not learn history are doomed to repeat it; the second time as farce.

Climate Change Wreaking Havoc

With the hot weather, comes the following quote from the news:

Forecasters MeteoGroup last night described this summer as “the worst since records began”. Forecaster Paul Knightley said: “This is as bad a summer as we can get in this country.

It has been bad, but I’m not sure its that bad. A lot of broken records in the U.S., but hey, what are records set for? However, the article goes on…

“It’s wet, cool and dull. It’s not wrong to suggest the first half of summer has been the worst since records began.”

Jonathan Powell, forecaster for Vantage Weather Services, said: “There is no settled fine weather on the horizon and August looks as doomed as July. It is a bitterly disappointing summer and already set to be in the top five wettest on record.

“The first couple of days of the Olympics are likely to be very wet indeed, and the rest of the Games unsettled.”

Whoa… Wait a minute, this doesn’t sound hot… What kind of “Climate Change” is this…

BRITAIN is facing its “worst ever” summer with cold wet weather ruining family holidays and blighting the Olympics, forecasters warned last night.

August is set to be a washout following a miserable July and the wettest June since records began – meaning summer is effectively over. [Source: Express UK.]

I guess weather is a local phenomena. I guess that some places its hot and others are… cold. That is truly climate and every day it changes…

James Lovelock on “Global Warming”

Dr. Lovelock seems to confirm much of what this blog has written about on “Global Warming” or “Climate Change” over the last 4 years. It is nice to see when people of different backgrounds and knowledge can come to the same conclusions. Sadly, Delaware’s Governor and his “Warmist” supporters are hurting Delaware’s economy by forcing high energy prices on Delaware’s businesses as well as promoting a regulatory regime that makes high-paying manufacturing jobs difficult to create…

The following is from the Toronto Sun.

Two months ago, James Lovelock, the godfather of global warming, gave a startling interview to msnbc.com in which he acknowledged he had been unduly “alarmist” about climate change.

The implications were extraordinary.

Lovelock is a world-renowned scientist and environmentalist whose Gaia theory — that the Earth operates as a single, living organism — has had a profound impact on the development of global warming theory.

Unlike many “environmentalists,” who have degrees in political science, Lovelock, until his recent retirement at age 92, was a much-honoured working scientist and academic.

His inventions have been used by NASA, among many other scientific organizations.

Lovelock’s invention of the electron capture detector in 1957 first enabled scientists to measure CFCs (chlorofluorocarbons) and other pollutants in the atmosphere, leading, in many ways, to the birth of the modern environmental movement.

Having observed that global temperatures since the turn of the millennium have not gone up in the way computer-based climate models predicted, Lovelock acknowledged, “the problem is we don’t know what the climate is doing. We thought we knew 20 years ago.” Now, Lovelock has given a follow-up interview to the UK’s Guardian newspaper in which he delivers more bombshells sure to anger the global green movement, which for years worshipped his Gaia theory and apocalyptic predictions that billions would die from man-made climate change by the end of this century.

Lovelock still believes anthropogenic global warming is occurring and that mankind must lower its greenhouse gas emissions, but says it’s now clear the doomsday predictions, including his own (and Al Gore’s) were incorrect.

He responds to attacks on his revised views by noting that, unlike many climate scientists who fear a loss of government funding if they admit error, as a freelance scientist, he’s never been afraid to revise his theories in the face of new evidence. Indeed, that’s how science advances.

Among his observations to the Guardian:

(1) A long-time supporter of nuclear power as a way to lower greenhouse gas emissions, which has made him unpopular with environmentalists, Lovelock has now come out in favour of natural gas fracking (which environmentalists also oppose), as a low-polluting alternative to coal.

As Lovelock observes, “Gas is almost a give-away in the U.S. at the moment. They’ve gone for fracking in a big way. This is what makes me very cross with the greens for trying to knock it … Let’s be pragmatic and sensible and get Britain to switch everything to methane. We should be going mad on it.” (Kandeh Yumkella, co-head of a major United Nations program on sustainable energy, made similar arguments last week at a UN environmental conference in Rio de Janeiro, advocating the development of conventional and unconventional natural gas resources as a way to reduce deforestation and save millions of lives in the Third World.)

(2) Lovelock blasted greens for treating global warming like a religion.

“It just so happens that the green religion is now taking over from the Christian religion,” Lovelock observed. “I don’t think people have noticed that, but it’s got all the sort of terms that religions use … The greens use guilt. That just shows how religious greens are. You can’t win people round by saying they are guilty for putting (carbon dioxide) in the air.”

(3) Lovelock mocks the idea modern economies can be powered by wind turbines.

As he puts it, “so-called ‘sustainable development’ … is meaningless drivel … We rushed into renewable energy without any thought. The schemes are largely hopelessly inefficient and unpleasant. I personally can’t stand windmills at any price.”

(4) Finally, about claims “the science is settled” on global warming: “One thing that being a scientist has taught me is that you can never be certain about anything. You never know the truth. You can only approach it and hope to get a bit nearer to it each time. You iterate towards the truth. You don’t know it.”

Bloom Energy Related Lawsuit Filed Against Governor Markell & The PSC

Below is the Caesar Rodney Institute’s press release, and I’ll let it speak for itself.

In the early 1970’s, the Coast Zone Act was passed in the Delaware General Assembly and signed into law by the late Governor Russell Peterson.

The fundamental purpose of this act was to stop Shell Oil from building another oil refinery in Delaware along the Delaware River. Of course, the act went much further, fundamentally banning all manufacturing from the defined “Coastal Zone”. The broader affect was to indicate to manufacturers that Delaware was an unattractive place in which to build manufacturing even outside the “Coastal Zone”. The result is that over the last 40 years, almost all manufacturing in Delaware has ceased.

One can argue that our environment is cleaner, and therefore, people are healthier. But, that simplistic analysis ignores the clear negative health outcomes for the unemployed and underemployed. And, wealthier citizens demand a cleaner environment. Many on the Left believe that clean manufacturing is impossible, but these same individuals enjoy the fruit of that manufacturing (look at the oil-based fabrics used in the Occupy Wilmington site).

In any event, the law is the law. Governor Markell can’t applaud Governor Peterson for banning manufacturing on the one hand and then choose to ignore that law on the other for his preferred manufacturer.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
RE: Lawsuit Filed against Governor Markell, Public Service Commission DATE: 6/20/2012

DOVER, DE – Cause of Action, a Washington D.C.-based legal advocacy group, has filed suit today in US Federal Court, District of Delaware, against Governor Jack Markell and five members of the Delaware Public Service Commission at the behest of the Caesar Rodney Institute.

The Caesar Rodney Institute (CRI), a Delaware-based non-partisan think tank, has challenged the merits of utilizing high-cost solid oxide fuel cells to produce electrical power for sale to ratepayers of Delmarva Power, Delaware’s largest energy utility provider. CRI was the sole entity opposing the contract between Delmarva Power and Bloom Energy at the Delaware Public Service rate hearings in October of 2011, on the basis the economic impact on Delaware’s economy would be negative because of the contract. CRI was also concerned about the constitutionality of the contract.

In an attempt to make the public aware of the issue at hand, CRI funded expert testimony in support of an engaged citizen’s challenge at a hearing before the Coastal Zone Industrial Control Board, as to whether Bloom Energy had the right to build its Solid Oxide Fuel Cell technology in lands that were considered protected for wildlife. The Board voted to deny the citizen activist standing, which allowed Bloom Energy to begin building its Fuel Cell technology in the Coastal Zone. At that point CRI decided to pursue the matter further.

Since CRI was not able to convince the Public Service Commission and other government regulatory bodies to change their views on either the economic or environmental impact of the permit application, discussions were initiated with Cause of Action to pursue the matter further. Based on the information and analyses CRI presented, Cause of Action accepted CRI’s request to intervene in the matter based on constitutional issues that could be adjudicated.

Billionaire Investor Invests In Obama, Biden, Markell and other Democrats, Profitably…

I have previously blogged on the connection between billionaire investor, John Doerr, and his early investment in Treasurer Jack Markell. Mr. Doerr, a card-carrying member of the 1% (if not an initiator of the breed), believes in making money the old-fashion way… He buys it. Of course, Bloom Energy is also a John Doerr funded enterprise.

One Of Fisker’s Largest Financial Investors Was “Politically Connected” California Venture Capital Firm Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers. “The loan to Fisker is part of a $1 billion bet the Energy Department has made in two politically connected California-based electric carmakers producing sporty — and pricey — cutting-edge autos. … One of Fisker’s biggest financial supporters, records show, is the California venture capital firm Kleiner Perkins Caufield & Byers. The firm financially supports numerous green-tech firms, records show.” (Matthew Mosk and Brian Ross, “Car Company Gets U.S. Loan, Builds Cars In Finland,” ABC News, 10/20/11)

John Doerr, A Partner Of Kleiner Perkins, Which Has Given More Than $1 Million To Candidates, Primarily Democrats, Recently Hosted Obama For A Dinner With High-Tech Executives. “Kleiner Perkins partner John Doerr, a California billionaire who made a fortune investing in Google, hosted President Obama at a February dinner for high-tech executives at his secluded estate south of San Francisco. Doerr and Kleiner Perkins executives have contributed more than $1 million to federal political causes and campaigns over the last two decades, primarily supporting Democrats.” (Matthew Mosk and Brian Ross, “Car Company Gets U.S. Loan, Builds Cars In Finland,” ABC News, 10/20/11)

• Doerr Is A Member Of Obama’s Council On Jobs And Competitiveness. (The White House, Accessed 6/5/12)

Mr. Doerr being a member of the Council On Jobs And Competitiveness is a bit like putting the fox in charge of the chicken coop. He invests in Democrats, and Democrats use taxpayer money to bail out Mr. Doerr’s failed investments. He’s clearly had Governor Markell’s ear which has cost Delaware Taxpayers over $20 million and counting…

10 More Acres Sacrificed to the Greenys

S0 Longwood Gardens has now put 10 acres of virgin ground into darkness under these “attractive” (NOT) solar panels.  It will make the amount of electricity that would power 138 homes.

They are afraid that they won’t be able to expand this with the other phase that they had planned because there is a glut of the solar energy credits on the market that make this economically feasible.  They only have value because the electric companies are forced to buy the credits by law.  The costs are then passed on, through higher electric rates,  to  consumers who are already having a hard time paying their bills in the “ObamaConomy”.  The Longwood director says:

But as far as the second phase, “As far as I’m concerned, the project’s dead, until the State of Pennsylvania gets its act together,” Redman said.

But help may be on the way, the PA legislature is considering a bill to force the companies to buy more of these worthless credits.  So he looks forward to the state taking more money out of the pockets of the long suffering homeowners to fund this homage to the Greenys.  Delaware has dealt with the low price problem caused by the glut of these SRECs by “Price Fixing” them at above market rates.  So we Delawareans are being ripped off two ways.  We have the best politicians money can buy! Yea!!

Renewable Energy Credits in Delaware — Or How Government Tinkering Can Really Screw Up a Market

A good summary of the Delaware REC Market was just emailed out by a local major supplier of PV Solar installations in Delaware:

February 17, 2012 Dear Delaware Solar Owner: In recent months a number of important developments have occurred in the Delaware SREC market that must be brought to the attention of PV solar system owners. These developments have significantly impacted the spot market value of Delaware SRECs in both positive and negative ways. This report has been prepared for customers so they can understand the impact of these developments on their solar investment. A History of the Delaware RPS Delaware’s Renewable Portfolio Standard (“RPS”) requires utilities to obtain 25% of their power from renewables and 3.5% from solar by 2012. The law has been amended 3 times since its original passage in 2005. In 2010, the requirements were expanded to their current percentages and schedule (see Delaware RPS). Under the latest revision in the law The solar RPS requirement was increased to account for the large portion of the SREC market that would be consumed by the installation of the Dover Sun Park (10 MW utility scale PV system built by the City of Dover).  Also municipal and cooperative electric companies will now be subject to the RPS from 2013 on. The 2010 legislation also created the Renewable Energy Taskforce In order to create more stable markets and protect solar systems of all sizes. The task force worked throughout 2011 to create a long term SREC contracting program for new solar projects. This program will be implemented in the spring of 2012. Under the program, Delmarva Power will enter into contracts to purchase the SRECs generated by new installed Solar PV system for 20 years at fixed rates. This program will provide a bankable rate of financial return for new Solar PV systems installed in the state of Delaware.  Unfortunately, under the current pilot version of the forward contract program, PV systems which became operational before December 1, 2010 are ineligible to enter into these forward contracts. SB 124 and the Introduction of Bloom Energy into the Delaware RPS Program Late in the 2011 legislative session a fast moving bill, SB124, allowed fuel cell technology to qualify for SRECs. This bill was designed to attract fuel cell manufacturer, Bloom Energy, to open a manufacturing plant in Delaware. Unfortunately, allowing fuel cell technology to generate SRECs may eventually consume as much as 30% of the Delaware SREC market. SB124 also makes Delmarva Power (“DPL”) responsible for the RPS compliance of third party suppliers in its EDC (electrical distribution company) territory. Whereas previously all third party suppliers, like WGES, Constellation, etc. had to purchase SRECs based on how much power they introduced into the Delaware market now DPL is responsible for the RPS compliance of all of these companies. This means that essentially there is only one in state purchaser now for Delaware SRECs, Delmarva Power, until 2013 when the Delaware Electric Coop and the Municipal power companies will be required to participate in the RPS. Unfortunately the Coop has already demonstrated its intention to participate via large utility scale systems. 2012 Crisis in the Delaware SREC Market As indicated earlier, DPL has committed to purchasing its future SREC compliance requirement through the 20 year forward contract process. This is excellent news for PV system owners who installed their solarafter December 1, 2010. These owners will have the opportunity to lock in their SREC income at very favorable rates (up to $312 per SREC for the first 10 years). However, this leaves older existing customers essentially without a buyer for their SRECs until 2013 when the municipal coops and DEC enter into the market. Historically, the ability to sell Delaware SRECs into other RPS compliance markets such as Maryland, Pennsylvania, and Washington DC have provided a safety valve for surplus Delaware SRECs. Unfortunately access to these markets has been diminishing. Both Washington, DC and Maryland closed their markets to out of state SRECs at the end of 2011. At the same time, the Pennsylvania RPS market is experiencing serious oversupply (due to dumping of out of state SRECs) depressing PA SREC prices to extremely low levels. The net result of this combination of factors is an anemic spot market for Delaware SRECs with very low valuations. What Does This Mean for You? Customers whose systems were activated after December 1, 2010 are eligible to enter into the DPL forward contracts for their SRECs for the next 20 years. Customers whose systems were installed before December 1, 2010 are in a more difficult situation, at least temporarily. Under current market conditions, SRECs are trading at very unattractive prices. These low prices are likely to continue until at least 2013-14 unless changes are made to either the Delaware RPS or the forward contract procurement system. Recently, the Delaware Renewable Energy Task Force indicated that at least some older customers will be eligible to enter into the next round of DPL forward contracts which is likely to occur at the end of 2012. This will provide relief to some customers in this position. We encourage you to contact your state legislators and request that they address the current crisis in the Delaware SREC market. Please mention these facts: Delaware’s solar carve out is too small. There is a surplus of SRECs, while RECs derived from wind and other sources have to be imported from out of state. Large utility scale projects and other technologies have been allowed to gobble up too much of the SREC market. The use of fuel cells for SREC compliance has nearly eliminated the growth in the solar carve out that would have been created by the 2010 legislation. Small solar owners are struggling to pay for their systems. The lack of an SREC market is slowing job creation and economic development in Delaware. Action from the Delaware General Assembly is needed to correct the oversubscribed SREC markets. In order for this to occur, your elected officials need to hear your concerns. Attached you will find a suggested form letter and links to the web pages of these officials. We encourage you to edit and personalize the letter highlighting your specific individual concerns. Thank you in advance for your effort to help the SREC market in Delaware.

Given that the State subsidized 50% of my installation cost and my system has been in for 5 years (I was a very early adopter), I’ve almost fully recouped my installation costs. But for those who came in after me with a smaller government subsidy and now new rules, they’ve gotten screwed for trying to do the right thing to support our intrepid global-warming fighting governor… They’ll think twice the next time.
