“...will cost utilities up to $129 billion.”

So will the costs of manufacturing. That means more jobs heading overseas. There’s a relatively simple way to neuter the EPA. Currently the EPA does not need to do a cost benefit analysis of the effects of new regulations. By requiring that along with including the effects on jobs and the effects of increased pollution in foreign countries with little or no environmental regulations, the EPA would be looking at some shocking numbers.

An example would be battery recycling that was forced out of this country to other countries with no child labor laws. What was the impact of that?

For those of you that live in voting districts represented by Republicans, get on the phone and pitch the cost benefit analysis requirement. I’m calling on Monday.

When the supply is restricted, it uncommon for prices to go up. I am continuously amazed how many at this conservative site are anti business and prone to ascribe conspiracy theories to practices easily explained by basic economics.

That $128 billion needed investment is what these conspiracy theorists conveniently ignore or purposely suppress.
