Yes, FPL has done a lot to prevent rooftop solar, but calling it "almost free" is not correct. Rooftop solar still comes with significant upfront costs. The weather of Florida degrades panels quicker with non-trivial odds of hurricane damage. Finally, Southwestern states receive much more solar irradiance.
If you are willing to be pragmatic and want solar in Florida, FPL's solar together program is your best option. Like it or not, utility grade solar is 1/3 the LCOE.
I like Cracker Barrel's four vegetarian sides plate. I can pick reasonably healthy options and the price isn't terrible. They are my preferred interstate-adjacent dining option on roadtrips. I'm even a loyalty member.
Yet I can't imagine spending one microsecond thinking about their logo let alone being stupid enough to be manipulated into having an opinion and then believing it relates to politics. Unless you are the majority shareholder, your view is utterly irrelevant. Shut up and either patronize the place or not.
There are a lot of people today on the right who cosplay as libertarians but somehow care deeply about the logo of a company they don't own.
Well, if you read the Headquarters of the United Nations Agreement (1947), you will find that the United States can deny visas for non-member states which includes the Palestinian Authority.
It's distasteful how people who are incorrect can bully and convince others to the contrary to bury truth.
The United Nations Plaza is firmly extraterritorial as stated in Article III, Section 7(a) of the Headquarters of the United Nations Agreement (1947). US law applies in this territory only to the extent it does not interfere with regulations of the UN which take precedent as defined in Article III, Section 8. So if the United States of America says the land is not American, why are you stating otherwise? Did you bother to look it up before mocking someone else?
As for your ignorant "but it's within the borders of..." argument, Vatican City is located within contiguous Italy and even within its most populous city, yet it's not just extraterritorial but a sovereign country. Did you forget the Holy See existed or do you just deny the validity of the Lateran Treaty because it is surrounded by Rome?
Finally, if all that weren't true, the US has bombed its own territory and citizens before: Jayayu in 1950. Of course, if you are ignorant of the Holy See, why would you know that.
20 years ago, I was driving the back roads of Lancaster County PA with my new wife one Sunday and came across an Amish stand selling potatoes. They were a little expensive and we were poor, but they looked unlike any we'd seen before so we bought a small bag.
That night we boiled them for dinner. The taste was cheesy, creamy, and unlike anything I had ever tasted before. They were the best potatoes I had ever tasted. Within seconds, my wife and I both blurted out that we had to head back next weekend and buy more.
We passed evenings that week with maps trying to figure out where we had been, and the next Saturday headed back out. We spent a day trying to retrace our route, but never found the road or stand.
We are now affluent middle-agers living down South, but a few times a year we still talk about taking a trip to scour Lancaster County for the Amish potatoes.
Supply has increased and prices have fallen. Demand should be induced. The first likely customers will be ultra processed food manufacturers as an ingredient, but let's see if Americans have the neuroplasticity to adapt.
If they can't, they can stop whining about rising food prices and go hungry. They might even have to have to be normal weights.
They overwhelmingly voted to cut their revenue while increasing their costs and are now crying for a government bailout. These actions are the very definition of being bad at business. Lacking the reasoning to understand that deporting illegal immigrants when you rely on their labor also indicates they are of below average intelligence, a fact backed up by IQ studies of professions.
