Thus fulfilling the desires of new world order to free up more coal for China at a better price, while simultaneously causing inflation inside the US which will hit the lower and middle classes (new world order’s “serfs”) the hardest.

This is what happens when Congress creates agencies and abdicates it’s power to them, i.e. the president is the defacto king and can make up any rule that he wants.

Yep, the EPA at the very least should be stripped of its regulatory powers.

This is the shadow government made up of unaccountable bureaucracies.

Congress has abdicated its authority to them.

The president now has his own dictatorship that circumvents congress.

We are probably the only country not building power generation plants. We are probably the only country on earth shutting down power generation plants in favor of skittle pooping unicorn power.

Utilities in D.C. should flip the power off and keep it off until those idiots decide to start thinking in a more rational manner.

“This was known before the 2008 election yet the coal miners still voted for Hussein”

That these people were convinced to vote for their own economic suicide, should show you all how powerful the propaganda of the left has become.

If I were God of the world, I would force ALL coal fired electric plants in the USA to close immediately. Then I would sit back and watch all these EPA/greenie/environmental assholes complain about the brownouts and rising cost of electricity. After a couple of months I would force all nuclear plants to shut down and enjoy my popcorn. A couple of months later ditto with the gas powered plants. And when the bitching got real bad I would say, live with your stupid wind turbine farms and solar panels. You got what you wanted. END OF DISCUSSION.

And if you say why punish those who are not greenies or environmentalists, I would say, they have voted in the idiots running DC and its minions again and again. You wanted it, you got it.

“capture carbon-dioxide emissions and stick them underground”

Wasn’t this tried somewhere? Ohio? And it failed miserably? Stuff seeped out of the ground in such heavy concentrations that it killed everything growing?
