President Barack Obama on Saturday laid out more pieces of an economic plan he says would add 3,000 miles of electrical lines, increase security at 90 ports and double the United States' renewable energy capacity within three years.
It was the latest appeal from the new president for a massive spending bill designed to inject almost a trillion dollars into a flailing U.S. economy and to fulfill campaign pledges. As members of Congress consider an $825 billion plan and Obama woos them, his White House released a radio and Internet address directed at voters who want answers.

Along with the speech, Obama's economic team released a report designed to outline tangible benefits of the plan and shore up support. Aides said they wanted people to understand exactly what they could expect more schools, lower electricity bills if their members of Congress supported the proposed legislation.

Supposedly his energy plans would save the average household 350.00 a year.... I’ll just pay the extra thirty bucks a month,thanks anyway.
LOL! Good point. Perhaps the best place to invest will be oil lamps.....
Beginning to think it? This has been the plan of the leaders of the leftards for this country for 50 years or more. Bring down the economy, force tyrannical laws on us to "save the economy" and bring the nation under communist rule.
It is plain to anyone who can still think that this is what Bozo and the boys have in mind. Bozo is only a tool for the higer ups, such as Soros.
Bozo promised to bankrupt coal companies(just last Jan) and drive electricity sky high but now claims he will lower cost of power. He is lying his a** off as usual and the communist news networks eat it up.
Well, good luck with that. The fumes from the melting wax will be deemed toxic and then the CO2 from the burning candle will add to global warming. No candles allowed!/SAR(did I really need to add the sar tag?)
But Barry O said during the campaign that his cap and trade policies would cause the price of electricity to necessarily “skyrocket.”
