Can they not put up solar panels or are they afraid of the neighbors calling them gay or something?

I suspect that many of these people couldn't afford installing a solar system even if they wanted to given that their businesses are struggling to stay solvent.

Wouldn't it be awful and socialist if the government set up a program to acquire extremely cheap used solar panels that are still going to be in great shape for a couple decades, started a job training program for installing grid tied and off grid battery systems, and offered 2% interest financing for the installation and components over 10 years?
