"Heard a couple of interesting stories on the news this weekend and this
morning. One was on the wind farms in West Texas. Apparently a lot of
ranchers are leasing their land to the government for wind farms to
supplement the $$ lost in the foundering cattle business. They also
interviewed one rancher who was opposed to installing the wind machines
saying that the ranchers who took advantage of the opportunity were not
being considerate to their neighbors when they allowed the government to
erect hundreds and hundreds of wind machines as far as they eye could see." 

 

Did the news REALLY say that the ranchers are leasing their land to the
GOVERNMENT for use as wind farms? Itwould be news to me that the government
is in the wind farm business.
