That was Hussein’s stated goal.
Evil bastard that he is.
The list, Ping
Let me know if you would like to be on or off the ping list
Thankfully my electric bill has not raised. My six bedroom house bill is 250 dollars. Hopefully it will stay that rate or go down. Going down is probably not going to happen.
Mine’s already gone up nearly 200% over the past decade and my electric company just raised rates to make up for the “loss” resulting from falling demand.
A surge in electric cars.
Only when the few that actually sold burst in to flames.
Going up 600 to 800% by 2015. Saw it in an arcticle 2 weeks ago about the electricity purchased by the company that runs the grid in the NorthEast ... they were signing contracts with the electricity producers for 2015 and the rates were 600% to 800% higher.
looked for and can’t find the link.

The arcticle no longer references the 600to 800% but it was there.

Just How Much Will It Cost To Keep the Lights On Under Obama’s Regulatory Reign?
May 24, 2012
New information released this month provides us with a glimpse of what the future of electricity in America will look like as a result of President Obama’s regulatory reign: higher prices and threatened reliability.
Power grid operator PJM Interconnection held its annual capacity price auction last week, which revealed Americans in 13 states across the Mid-Atlantic and Midwest can expect higher electricity bills in 2015 and beyond. As explained by PJM, the increase is largely attributable to the retirement of an “unprecedented” amount of coal-fired generation driven by EPA’s new and forthcoming power sector rules. In the past six months, generation owners in the PJM footprint have announced plans to retire nearly 14,000 megawatts (MW) of generating capacity by 2015, with more regulatory-driven retirements expected. To help offset this loss, PJM recently announced that an initial $2 billion worth of transmission upgrades are required by 2015 to maintain grid reliability. PJM customers will foot the bill for these transmission upgrades, sending their electricity bills even higher.
