🤔Speaking of Windfarms...... there's been a lot of controversy in New Jersey the last few months over those things. Half seems to be people trying to blame them for problems with whales. The other half seems to be people from Shore towns who don't want Tourists looking at Giant wind turbines from the boardwalks.

🤔Are the people of Liberia benefiting from any of this? Does that money fund jobs there? I know Firestone used to grow rubber there for decades? Same for the Marshall Islands? Do the people have any real maritime jobs? Or are these Front companies that will sell anybody a Liberian flag for $20?

@rogerstarkey5390 I don't have anything wrong with nuclear power. It's actually generating most of the power to meet locally at the moment from PECO Energy to Philadelphia. The biggest issue? This week we saw the first brand new American nuclear plant open in like 40 years. South Jersey closed the one Nuclear Plant in the region a Oyster Creek, in 2018. It had been in operation since 1969.

@rogerstarkey5390 actually it seems the wind project is supposed to be replacing that very nuclear facility. They want to run all the power lines from the wind turbines to the electrical infrastructure at the old Nuclear Plant.
