Simple Solution

If the opponents of Pine Tree Power ( Question 3), CMP, Versant and  $18 million in out-of-state money for lobbyists simply gave the $27 million they have spent on misleading adds to the 1.5 million people who live in Maine directly, we could each have about $20,000 dollars, enough for solar panels and heat pumps for everyone, definitely helping our electric bills as well as the climate.

And if the $187 million in profits sent out of the State of Maine last year alone were kept in Maine, we would have plenty of funds to invest in our infrastructure!  Seems simple to us.
