Wyoming Wind Taxes Highest Among Neighbors

If planned taxes go into effect, Wyoming's taxes on wind would be highest among its neighbors.

The story lacks much financial information. For example, there is no comparison between taxes on fossil fuels and wind energy on an energy-producing basis.

In addition, there is no cost estimate of the biggest bottleneck: lack of transmission lines. Someone has to pay for those lines. Again, the reporting on wind energy is lacking. I have nothing against wind energy; I just want everything to be "transparent."  Voters can then decide how they want to spend their money.
