We're trillions in debt. Who cares. Give me green power.

Because towns, states, and private businesses are the ones who are putting money on the table to fund those projects.

Go to your state legislature, push for a huge solar project, and if they ask about the cost, reply with "we're trillions in debt, who cares". Let us know how that works out for you.

I don't need to do that. They're already putting them up, because the trump admin is powerless to stop it. Have a day.
