    Spanish government set to tax solar power collected by users of photo-voltaic cells in an effort to generate much needed revenue.This is a first globally and could set back use of this amazing technology in Spain,also perhaps prompting other countries to do the same:

    I'm not surprised. Spain is such a wasteful barbaric ass backward piece of shit country.

    I guess a 15-20 year return on investment isn't enough for those dirty rotten bastards.

    Since you are apparently from Canada I will let this piece of pure poetry go by.

    Thought the OP was a sort of joke. We are reminded of The Beatles: Tax Man

    What is next to be taxed ?

    Like anything else in this world, if Solar makes sense it will have to succeed with taxes and all.
