#2 = lie. wind power is now the cheapest form of new electricity in many places and it very clearly LOWERS the price of electricity through the Merit Order Effect: http://cleantechnica.com/world-wind-power/5/

#3 = lie. wind power results in more jobs than coal or natural gas. (less than solar, if that’s your point, which i’m sure it isn’t): https://plus.google.com/u/0/photos/111911664180944288420/albums/5766149153849847377/5766149678558115234
