"No, they are indeed public resources. If they are to be exploited for the benefit of private enterprise, then the public should be compensated."
Are you seriously proposing a wind, sunshine, and rain tax? These aren't public resources, they are forces of nature.

These "resources" are free for anyone to use at anytime and belong to no one, not even the Kennedys.
