Here are some data regarding the magnitude of favoritism the Federal government is displaying for one American industry over others. These are from the government’s own Energy Information Administration.
- Renewable energy, led by wind and solar, received $15.6 billion in federal government subsidies in fiscal year 2022
- natural gas and petroleum liquids industry received $2.3 billion
- coal industry received $0.873 billion
“Green”-sourced energy is getting orders of magnitude more taxpayer money than are the far cheaper and reliable fossil fuel-sourced energy.
This is how much green energy is supported by taxpayer funds rather than by energy users with the rates they pay their utilities.
