They are idiots, but the are committed to destroying the USA and think it is justified in their warped minds.

They don’t care if they destroy the USA and our freedom. It stands in the way of their glorious (sarcasm) totalitarians state.

We will see who prevails.

Be sure to check out the energy production estimates, info on prices.

Note to the rest of the nation: You can’t say you weren’t warned.

short answer ...EROI ...”energy return on investment”

THE number that makes your cell phones, HVAC, and SUV’s affordable and operable

coal is an intrinsic part of that critical number
