Preferential treatment from the government skews the rules of free enterprise. Net-metering is unfair to taxpayers.

Not mentioned are all the extra taxes Americans have had to pay to fund the years worth of credits given to the solar industry -- this doesn't cost any less if you look at your tax bill.
