Where's Jumpin' Joe Kennedy?

How about Elizabeth Warren? I thought the middle class was being "hammered" in her home-away-from-home state.

Gee. I guess when you militantly refuse to have nuclear power plants, coal burning plants, pipelines and refineries built in your area, energy rates go up. What a surprise. But don’t worry, once all those wind power generators get going, rates will come down again. Oh, that’s right, rich Nantucket homeowners protested them too so I guess the state is SOL.

This should go over like a lead balloon. Just wait, winter heat bills are really going to hurt people.

Who says Barack Obama didn’t keep any of his promises?

"In 2008, President Obama said, ‘If someone wants to build a new coal-fired power plant they can, but it will bankrupt them because they will be charged a huge sum for all the greenhouse gas that’s being emitted',.

Only promise he kept........

Maybe Joe Kennedy can go, hat in hand, and beg Venezuela for more charity oil.

Just ‘necessary skyrocketing’ Barry said was needed to lower the oceans.

I guess that's what you get when you overwhelmingly support a presidential candidate and a party who promised that ,"...under [their] version of a cap and trade system, electricity rates will NECESSARILY SKYROCKET."

So how's that workin' out for you?

This scares the heck pout of me! I already have an electric bill like the national debt and it comes every month. Even though I do not live anywhere near the area, once the utilities figure out that National Grid Infrastructure is something they can exploit for more profit, it will be on every bill nationwide.

BTW: The ‘infrastructure’ is the responsibility of the utility. Every bill in every state is already figured with additional charges for maintenance and updates to infrastructure right in the bill.

The utility rates in Austin are going to skyrocket as well. The Silly council voted to get off all fossil fuel generated electricity. The entire city will be powered by solar and wind generated sources.

The city owns a gas powered facility at Long Lake, and is a partner at the Fayette county power project. I think they already sold their portion of the South Texas nuke. The idiots deserve what they voted for.

Massachusetts is gonna’ look like 19th century England but without coal- heavily bundled-up peasants burning candles and oil lamps by night

The power company is blaming this on the high demand for natural gas, which doesn’t seem right.

Without saying it directly the article says that the cost of fuel oil is also going to skyrocket as the electric companies start using fuel oil when they can’t get Natural Gas.

If Massachusetts was fair, it would charge those who believe in global warming an additional 78% and charge those who believe in Science the same rate that they have been paying.
