She just redistributed some of her own wealth.
Why’s she crying?
I would like to point out that some, if not all of the companies on the list of targets had disputes with the Obama administration and/or unions.
Peabody coal is especially interesting because the history is so tangled and kind of puts Republicans in an awkward position. Peabody sued the Obama EPA over the discredited global warming statistics, demanding that the Feds show new scientific proof that coal causes global warming. Peabody won its case. The Obama EPA was ordered to show new science, but they made a deal with Peabody instead.
The deal was Obama’s new two sided coal plan, eastern bituminous coal bad, western sub-bituminous coal, good, but only if it was exported to Asia or used in new “clean burning” power plants. So, the battle for new coal terminals began, with unions fighting against Greens for new ways to ship the dirty coal through Green voting states, past their homes and through their cities. Now, the war on coal was local in the west as well, local and personal. Obama has a problem.
Boeing, we all know about. Obama lost that union fight. He doesn’t get mad, he gets even, look for some real damage.
I don’t know about the rest of the companies and I don’t know why they were picked. Maybe some of you have some ideas.
