Wouldn’t renewables pencil better if we removed all of the subsidies that non-renewables have been enjoying for decades? People talk about the “cheapness” of non-renewable energy as if it is inherently cheap. It is not. Yet when someone tries to throw renewables a bone to get the ball rolling everyone cries about the costs despite the incredible costs we’re already paying to make and keep non-renewable energy cheap.
I’d like to see how things pencil on an even playing field. Sure, non-renewables will still come out cheaper, but not at such a level that investment in renewables is seen as an un-sustainable (pun intended) waste.

Even if there is no additional tax revenue from Prop 19, don’t forget to factor in the money that will be saved by not having to arrest, prosecute, and imprison people for marijuana-related infractions. How much does the state currently spend on these things?
