Ohio Signs First of a Kind Anti-Renewable Energy Bill Into Law

It really is mind-boggling, the extent to which "special interests (read: corporate interests) have gotten a hold over American politics. The seeming hatred and paranoia of any progressive policies or possibilities has truly reached the level of paranoia.

Here is a case in point: Ohio got the dubious distinction of becoming the first state in history to sign an anti-renewable energy bill into law.

Yes, in effect, it is now policy to be as wasteful as possible, and it is now pretty much frowned upon if you want to do your part to conserve that energy or be a responsible citizen concerned with the state of things regarding environmental degradation and the overall culture of waste (which is particularly strong here in the United States) which permeates.

Things just keep going in the wrong direction, and the United States keeps distancing itself from the rest of the world community when you see headlines like these:
