Socialists! Communists they are! And/or too lazy to actually engage in the democratic process effectively. Don't hide behind Amish skirts, whiners!

Republican state legislators are showing community solar some love: www.canarymedia.com/articles/sol...

“Ultimately, for me, it was giving Iowan consumers a choice,” said Iowa state Rep. Hans Wilz, a Republican, in a March interview on why he introduced a #communitysolar bill.
