Keep saying "I'll wait til it gets cheaper"...while your electric bill keeps going higher.

Don't buy solar but keep complaining about the 30% ITC tax credit, the one that the "taxpayer's are paying for" Yea, that is great, your neighbor went solar and you didn't so he is getting the huge tax advantage and you're merely complaining about it.

Our Children Are Why We Cannot Afford To Avoid Solar

---

Playing with my children on the floor last night and I found myself asking the age old question, what have I done for them to secure a better world than I inherited? Cliche I know, but it is true.

It would seem people these days are not doing enough of the right kind of research on some companies that do home improvements or renovations to their property.
