[@Arawak] Absolutely. I could have gone on about why mass-scale renewable energy development won't happen until it's too late, but I only wanted to bring up the points that were semi-relevant to my argument at this time; where the struggle for solar power and the struggle for taking back our prisons are parallel to each other, in the form of sabotage at the hands of private interests.

Never mind the fact that the Democrats will oppose anything the Republicans try to do just to be petty and vindictive. Never mind the fact that some people sincerely believe global warming and the dangers of pollution are myths. Never mind that even if we took all personal vehicles off the roads and powered all personal homes with renewable energy, that's still a drop in the ocean compared to the enormous environmental strains of our industrial infrastructure (shipping and transportation, manufacturing, etc.). It goes on and on.
