Look for electricity rates to double within the next five to ten years.

My alternative is to cut the national grid.

Let them live with the results of their choices.

Paintball guns with CS loaded paintballs. Apply until every idiot hippy there is incapacitated.

Bury them in the nearest landfill for fertilizer.

These people are quickly becoming an active danger to us all.

“Look for electricity rates to double within the next five to ten years.”

You’re right, Bob. I see the future and it is a complete re-hash of the 70’s and all the stupidity we went through with our energy needs at the hands of Carter, et al.

If these lefties are so hell-bent on conserving energy while making it unavailable, or ungodly expensive for the rest of us due to their religion of “global warming” then they need to get off the grid and live in a hut.

Lead by example, you dopey wieners!

I think that Wisonsinites are finally coming to the realization that Nuclear power is the wave of the future....ya think??...or perhaps they are remembering that Clinton eliminated the U.S. clean coal reserves (Utah near the Grand Canyon) from possible mining so that his buddy in Indinesia could sell us clean coal at his prices....remember???...pathetic

--it must be over fifty years ago that Cassville bent every effort to get the generating plant-I remember it well as I was in the late grades or high school in Livingston at the time.

--how times have changed--

Western unit train coal is about $4.50. Still an incredible bargain compared to gas at $11 +

I still remember 32 years ago when some hippies down in the Ozarks were protesting a coal fired plant in NW Arkansas claiming it would burn “High sulfer western coal”! It doesn’t....And when people protested it because it would pollute rivers and streams with ash, and cloud the sky with ash. Bald eagles now populate it’s shores in winter. Deer are all over the place.

Just burn the activists in the furnaces, to save a little coal. Then everything would work out fine.

“not the least cost option under any scenario.”

The people of Wisconsin should tell the State government to go to Hell.
