Wisconsin GOP Rep. Tom Tiffany says he’s re-introducing legislation to remove wind and solar subsidies, in the slipstream of fellow Republican President Trump’s effort to move the country back to producing and using more domestic fossil fuel.
He made the announcement Wednesday on the “Just the News, No Noise” TV show, telling hosts John Solomon and Amanda Head the issue is part is that wind and solar facilities provide only intermittent power.
“We are seeing 1,000s of acres of productive farmland here in America that are being converted to these wind and solar facilities that just provide intermittent power,” Tiffany said.
“For example, here in the upper Great Lakes, they’re on at most 25% of the time. So we’re trading base load power that’s on all the time for these intermittent sources of power. It does not work. It’s raising people’s electricity rates.”
The Wisconsin congressman also said that his legislation, the Future Agriculture Retention and Management Act, will address the problems created by government subsidized green energy, including rising electric costs. […]

At Last, a Company With Integrity in the Gold IRA Industry
For several years, I’ve been vetting out precious metals companies in search of the best. I believe in gold and silver but it’s hard to find integrity in the Gold IRA industry. The vast majority operate with shady tactics and gigantic spreads that take advantage of Americans who simply want to protect their life’s savings.
I’ve found a handful that I like and I’ve worked with some of them. By no means would I “unrecommend” them because, again, I vetted them out and found them to be above the fold. Unfortunately, it isn’t hard to be better than the rest when the rest are so darn awful.
After years of searching, I finally found a company that truly operates with integrity. Augusta Precious Metals has three important attributes that set them far above the competition:
- Non-Commissioned Sales Team: I cannot stress how important and unique this is. With just about every other company in the Gold IRA industry, the sales teams make commission from every account they open. This means they steer their clients toward the gold and silver products with the highest commission. With Augusta Precious Metals, the team is solely focused on putting the best gold and silver for their clients into their IRA. They get paid to serve the best interests of the Gold IRA client, NOT their own commission pay.
- Incredibly Low Fees: Most Americans would be shocked if they knew the spread other Gold IRA companies charge. Augusta charges just 5% versus up to 45% elsewhere.
- No Pressure, No Gimmicks: There’s an understanding among most in the Gold IRA industry that fear and pressure is the way to go. Augusta Precious Metals takes a sober approach when working with clients because they hold integrity in the highest possible regard. This is why they don’t offer gimmicks like “free” or “bonus” silver. It’s also why they do not apply pressure tactics to get quick sales. Their educational and transparent approach to doing business is exceedingly rare in the Gold IRA industry.
