It is puzzling why so many well-meaning Americans continue to install solar panels made in China, without considering the total costs to the environment and to labor. Both of which are moral issues. As to labor, how can we support Chinese manufacturing practices, while eliminating our own US manufacturing employment base?

As to the environment, the green benefits are as illusory with solar panels as with electric cars once you take mining and manufacturing impacts, and the disposal impacts, into account.

I don't watch much YouTube, so I don't pay to go ad-free, so I have to watch the beginning of some ads... and every other ad is urging me to install solar panels and let the government pay for it before the Solar Investment Credit expires this year. Tired of it! But lots of people want something for nothing; they don't want to leave any "free" money on the table.

A bit quick, but you put your point across! The Green New Deal is ALL ABOUT $$$ for the Elitists. The people will pay for this "hoax" / "Scheme" and unfortunately they can't see the forest from the trees. Too many years of being dumbed down by Liberalism. Thank you for putting this video up for all to see. Keep up the great work. God Bless You. You're a, Doll!
