The article in the post tries to claim that the ratio of fossil fuel subsidies to renewable is 100 to 1. But the time frame of that pie chart belies a serious misrepresentation of fact. "Cumulative Historical Federal Subsidies" suggests all federal subsidies throughout all of history, which would include subsidies paid in the 1930's.
It would be much more enlightening to know that ratio just for the past 5 years.
