Above Image: Dozens of opponents to ocean wind turbines gained media widespread media attention in front of the Atlantic City Convention Center last Tuesday, October 29. The protest was coordinated by Margate realtor Sherri Lilienfeld with the cooperation of various groups from Long Beach Island to Cape May. They included Defend Our Beaches New Jersey (Formerly Defend Brigantine Beach and Downbeach), Protect Our Coast (Ocean City, NJ) and many commercial fishermen.

New Jersey’s Governor Phil Murphy had invited wind turbine developers, contractors, and suppliers from all over the world to attend the conference in Atlantic City.
Last Tuesday, the Associated Press reported as national news that this “national offshore wind conference. . . has become ground zero for vocal, well-organized opposition” to offshore wind turbine projects. It said “numerous industry officials said they are in a difficult battle against deliberate falsehoods.” Click here for link to full article: Offshore wind industry says ‘misinformation’ from foes is a strong headwind it must fight.
The wind industry is lying! Our opposition to offshore wind is based on undisputed scientific and economic facts! We recite those facts in every article we post. You can find them in our previous posts by using the Search Bar on the LibertyAndProsperity.com Home Page.

Three powerful forces are pushing these wind turbine projects forward. They are Hate, Bribes and Ignorance.
1. Hate: Since the Cold War of the 1950’s, enemies of America have waged systematic “Ideological Subversion” or “Psychological Warfare” against us. During the past seventy years, they have convinced too many Americans that our country is evil and deserves to be transformed, defeated, and destroyed. They know that the best way to make our nation weak, divided and poor is to destroy our economy. The quickest way to do that is to deprive us of abundant, affordable and reliable energy. Energy from “sunshine and breezes” is too weak, intermittent, and unreliable to power a modern society.

2. Bribes: Wind and solar developers and contractors are making enormous profits, even though wind and solar projects can never produce enough electricity to pay for themselves. They earn their profits from government instead. Most of their money comes from $783 billion of spending by the federal government through the “Inflation Reduction Act of 2022”. That spending is causing massive inflation because the federal government is not collecting nearly enough in taxes to pay for this. It is instead simply printing trillions of dollars each year with nothing to back them up. New Jersey also pays wind and solar companies far more than the value of any electricity they produce. We pay for that in the form of high business and property taxes and in hidden taxes and fees in our electric bills.
3. Ignorance: Our public schools no longer teach students basic science. As a result, few Americans know only large magnets turning inside large coils of wires can produce enough electricity to power a grid. Those magnets must turn at a constant speed, 24 hours a day, seven days a week, 365 days each year. Only wheels turned by energy from coal, oil, natural gas, or hydro-electric dams can do that. This cannot be done by the sun which sets at night and is often blocked by clouds. This cannot be done by the wind which constantly changes speed and often stops completely. Ironically, none of the five wind turbines in Atlantic City were moving during the morning of the Offshore Wind Conference in Atlantic City last Tuesday, October 29!
It is important to raise these three issues when we oppose ocean wind. Most people who live and work near the ocean understand the importance of ocean views and marine life. However, most voters in New Jersey live far from our beaches and do not understand or care. We need other arguments to persuade them.
