North of Bangor is one of the most sparsely populated places East of the Mississippi.

The federal government should invest in green energy but our state shouldn't administer a program based on a half-baked Reddit post. Maybe hire an expert or put out an RFP to see what types of ideas people who work in the industry have.

If the private sector wants to pay for it I don't give a shit but yeah maintaining 300 miles of solar panels in the middle of a highway in the middle of nowhere Maine is just fairy tale thinking. Show me a study on how this would work before floating the idea lol

Maintenance would be pretty difficult. Solar panels are not something you just plop down and leave.

Putting solar panels all across the highway in the middle of nowhere doesn't seem like a great idea. And who would pay for it? The private sector is building solar farms all over the place and they have thought through what it will take to build and maintain them.

Well that's the econ 101 version. Unfortunately, there are many more factors and most places aren't building enough housing to meet demand.

Building deluxe apartments make other housing cheaper and in about 20 years they'll be regular apartments.

We should be telling everyone that they're different regardless. White suburbanites should be more scared of these nutbags than critical race theory.

That’s a pretty massive investment. Those are good paying jobs that lawyers will take.

Yes they're calling it. Depending on the data they have they will call elections based on exit polls alone.

You think it's efficient use of state resources to doing that instead of a farm setup like the private sector does? Come on... this idea isn't even fully formed.
