    Nah man, it’s some, not most, which makes it all the more depressing. My hometown is a farm town, and some are crying and moaning about turbines, some aren’t.

    The Business-minded Farmers see the green, the local Liberals see the other green, the Hicks see an eyesore, and the Yokels see da librul nrg and shit themselves because “it’s happening in their town”.

    Yokels panic and lie to the hicks, hicks then get scared and hateful towards the one thing that’s not a Dollar General promising new jobs for the town in the last several decades.
