Windmills and solar power are part of the solution. A Danish company has recently announced that it will create 830 jobs in central Arkansas by building a wind turbine facility here. My only question is WHY does it have to be a foreign country manufacturing these? Can't we do any kind of manuracturing with a U.S. based company anymore?
