  • It only makes sense that he's thrilled as he's making money from these things at the expense of his neighbors. There's a bunch of other residents of Fenner who have to live with these things who aren't quite as cheerful. Oh well. Farmers have had a welfare mindset for so long now they'd take subsidies from the devil himself.

  • I want to do this I live in Hereford AZ and we are always complaining about how windy it is, for $200 the wind would be much more tolerable.

  • @slingshot731  I beg to differ. I also have two turbines here in Fenner. I wouldn't say what I lease out my land for because it's my concern alone. I'm sure Scott feels the same way. Wind power has been introduced to NY to SUPPLEMENT the grid, not to be the sole provider. I'm certainly no "tree hugger," but when you live in a place where there is an AVERAGE wind speed of 17.5 MPH and it takes just 5 to make the turbine generate, it's a pretty good idea to harness that limitless source of fuel.

  • they pay you like 200 or more dollors a month for a farm that is dam good money

  • ...and if he didn't want to tell his income because it isn't much, then why would be be all in favor of wind energy? You non-tree huggers may be educated, but you really need to get some common sense ;)

    ...Sorry just had to say that hehe

  • Property Owners are paid anywhere from $4000.00 to $10,000.00 PER Wind Turbine PER

    year as a lease to have them on their property.If you have 100 Wind Turbines you could get paid an average of $400,000.00

    to over One Million Dollars a year for 100

    of them.

  • Finally a video that tells the truth about wind energy. Now that the government is onboard expect to see more and more WTG's coming to a horizion near you.

  • ic them from my house, shut up hippies they cause no harm

  • Well done. We should have more of this up and running in New Zealand.
