BEWARE of Federally Orcastrated - Locally Focused Initiatives
The municipality that counts community benefit in dollars too heavily will likely compromise basic principles of our society. It's no secret that Falmouth Massachusetts serves as the 'step-child' example - Poorly sited wind turbines (encouraged & sponsored by the state) has lead to neighborhood health and welfare violations (nuisance). The finding of nuisance has translated into costing the town nearly a 1/4 million $ deficiet annually (mitigation from nuisance). BIG BROTHER’s solution = cover the life of the project’s deficit (at the state ratepayer & taxpayer expense) if the town agrees to a contractual forfiture of it’s local juristictional powers to protect the health and welfare of some of it's inhabitants.

It's time to weigh fundamental social values against a politically propagandized policy.
