-——those who can’t afford to escape to Florida-——

Well, if they can’t afford to escape to Florida

Let them escape to Tennessee

Cuomo has already said he doesn’t want Christians, conservatives or pro-lifers in New York. If he gets away with all this, someday in the near future, Rhode Island will have a larger population than New York.

Sounds a lot like PG&E’s problems.

Business in PA is outstanding, my gas heating bills are 30% of what they were 8-9 years ago, my water is clean, the air is pure and people in general, are happy.

We look at NY and think that fredo's brother must have a strategic plan to save NY's natural gas for 50 years so that it will be more valuable.

He won't be here, but New Yorkers will hail him as a genius for saving the gas. S/Off

You were being sarcastic; but, until very recently, a lot of people (likely a large majority) believed in “peak oil”, and thought it wise to preserve domestic supplies, by buying more and more foreign oil and gas. That was even the case in Canada, until the magnitude of oil-sands reserves finally sunk in.

There was as much proof for 'peak oil' as there is for 'man made global warming' and the same people push them both.

I never believed that there was such a thing as 'fossil fuel' made from the bones of the dead animals.

so I am not a geologist or subsurface engineer but, I do stay at Holiday Inn.

Peak oil is correct (within the understanding of drilling and production technologies when it was proposed). A lot of what it was about was the difficulty of shale oil production.

Horizontal drilling, highly accurate directional drilling and fracking are technologies that are all fairly old and were combined in a novel way to address shale oil production.

Peak oil was stupid because the oil shales have been known about for decades. So it was only a matter of time until someone figured out how to produce it.

And yes, CO2 regulation is about destruction of free enterprise through regulation. That Enron was behind carbon credit market development is to me all anyone needs to find out to identify it as a scam.

If National Grid were smart, they would withdraw from the New York market. Given the current political climate and policies, it will be a disaster for the company and shareholders if they stay. There will be rate cuts, lawsuits and judicial ordered “remedies” that will bankrupt the company. Get out now.”””

Straight out of “Atlas Shrugged”....

They better not come to Texas and beg for energy; the governor and people here will gladly give them all the finger and tell them to get lost.
