in response to Robert123:  So taxpayers are now supposed to pay
even more than we do now for others' residential energy

sounds good to our democratic mayor. Another feel good project,
eh? Paying over $300,000 for a poor family's new home wasn't

families is supposed to be a short term assistance measure while
the family "gets on its feet", why are we supporting landlords

don't have double pained windows or other niceties. My home also
is valued at well less than $300,000. I've always worked and
paid takes. There list of entitlements keeps growing and growing
for some in our population. Yeah, we the citizens and taxpayers
are paying for more and more feel good projects.  That's a real
