Two problems in this quote, the obvious lie is about potential power generation, which has been thoroughly destroyed in the post.
The second one is the choice of language "landscape covered in wind farms" implies that the land would be covered in windmills. This misleading description is designed to create a false image in peoples minds of the result of building the wind farms in Nebraska.
Truth is most of Nebraska, especially the purple part depicted in the US wind map linked in the post, is empty. Western Nebraska, along with Western Kansas, South Dakota and even further south, are areas that have been steadily losing population since the 1970's. Wind Power offers a measure of economic uplift to areas that have abandoned farming because it's too dry.
Wind power is a full win for everyone in this region of the US, and it is a crime that coal industry prostitutes like Ron Asche get to spout their BS in public.
