California, well-known for being on the bleeding-edge of planet-saving initiatives, has been subsidizing solar power home installations for years.

But apparently human survival must take a back seat to an even more important crisis looming over all of our futures: lack of equity. Scott Ott says California is now  removing the subsidy they provide for residents who have solar panels to sell power back to the electricity grid.

Ott says the state was giving solar panel owners the retail price per kilowatt hour to sell electricity back to the grid, but recently determined this was only benefitting the wealthy. “So what happens when the mother of all incentive states dials back the incentives? Do other states follow suit?” Ott asks. He’s joined by “Right Angle” colleagues Bill Whittle and Stephen Green to hash out the issue.
