Indian solar power prices hit record low, undercutting fossil fuels

That’s right folks. Free power from the sun can actually cost LESS than getting power from fossil fuels.
Now, I know what you’re thinking. “How is it possible? How can electric power made from the sun hitting solar panels be cheaper than electricity made from oil or gas, that have to be discovered, dug out of the ground, transported to a refinery to be refined into burnable fuel, then transported back to the power plants to be burned?”
Yeah. That’s exactly why it’s cheaper.

GOP Sen. Orrin Hatch says Americans who want affordable health care are “on the dole”

You want to know who is on the dole? Lifetime politicians, that’s who. Senator Asshat. Literally on the dole. A burden to taxpayers. What makes YOU entitled to lifetime health insurance paid by the American people, you fucking hypocrite scum sucking leach?

More cities should try out this floating apple orchard thing New York’s got going on.

I’m not sure that telling all of New York City that they are free to “forage” on this one barge is the recipe for success here, but maybe if there were a few more of them? add a few indoor…maybe warehouse greenhouses could be a thing too, because #winter
