Yup, and George Soros does actually funds pro-wind groups. Open Society Foundation gives $400 million over 8 years to green economic development. That said, I think that's a bullshit argument for not supporting wind, and I'd much rather have an argument with data about the long-term economics.

You’ll notice these are not at all comparable because Soros does not have an obvious financial interest in wind supplanting oil

This is important. There's a difference between charitable donations that are actually for the public interest vs. shadow lobbying by oil companies.
