Any individual or business knows these two facts......

There are only 2 certainties in life.......

Death and Taxes...(and all should minimize the later to the full extent allowed by law).

Legitimate businesses know this .

These Wind Scoundrels do not use a legitimate business model, and never have. They lie and deceive as their modus operandi and utilize quasi legitimate and legally questionable hedging schemes for…

Mills is a highly biased democrat party AG appointee and strong pro-wind advocate. 

This would appear to be biased political payback for the appointment of LePage's general council Carlie Mclean to the PUC who recently helped cause a new unbiased look at wind power contracts to occur in Maine.

Maine is a dirty little state politically. She forces a small organization she dislikes to be held to the highest…

Is This Possible in Maine too?

Is it all about the "Green"     $$$$$$$$$$$ ?…

After years of dealing with the wind issue, I can say with sadness that Maine is a very dirty little state, politically.

It is a shame how unctuous political elites have manipulated the legislative process as it concerns the wind scam. 

Governor LePage should immediately place a halt to all further wind projects until  detailed cost/benefit analysis is undertaken of the wind industry in Maine.

In addition , an ethical…

Maine Needs This , Desperately...Maybe Alfond Should Should Read this?

If nothing else , he should try writing his own bills for the wind lobby (without using the words  verbatim   from  a Verrill Dana lawyer who works for First Wind).

Is This what "Green Power" really means to some Maine high level politicians and,

How long will Mainers allow themselves to be taken by   "the Yieldco"?

Remember that famous movie's  saying about "Plastics" ?

Well, the wind scam's   only future may indeed be  "In Yieldcos", but trust me, they  will always  try  to lower their  financial  risk by screwing the Initial Public Offering investor .

Terraform Power…

Two of the earliest  industrial wind  projects in Maine , to this day, produce a fraction of their potential fickle intermittent trickle of electrons!, WHY? Do your representatives care? (or are they part of the problem?)

What wind  turbines do produce at full capacity is Renewable Energy Credits for the pseudo  market created by  your government via  the likes of DE Shaw   and other elite derivative investors on Wall Street. Those like Alfond,Angus King, Sussman,Kurt…

First Wind et al is comprised of a cadre of well connected subsidy seeking liars, who deceive and pervert the permitting process for their own ends.

They deserve to be removed from Maine's permitting process as contenders for any other projects in Maine.  

This was a good wake up call for the industry as well. They have everything on their side except the truth, and…

“If you tell a lie big enough and keep repeating it, people will eventually come to believe it. The lie can be maintained only for such time as the State can shield the people from the political, economic and/or military consequences of the lie. It thus becomes vitally important for the State to use all of its powers to repress dissent, for the truth is the mortal enemy of the lie, and thus by extension, the truth is the greatest enemy of the State.”

Why do the Big Lies of Big Wind persist , and why are  perpetrators like First Wind successful?

You ask "Why?" here's a quote that explains ....."..... in the big lie there is always a certain force of credibility; because the broad masses of a nation are always more easily corrupted in the deeper strata of their emotional nature than consciously or voluntarily; and thus in the primitive simplicity of their minds they…
