Ping.
Along with the effort to force us all into electric cars, the price of electricity should go really high!
“policymakers already are scrambling to find cheap and reliable alternative power sources.”
The Washington communists have appointed themselves to run the power industry. If it doesn’t work, they are to blame for the result.
Small price to pay for free health care, strong unions, and more DNC money to play with.
While you are shivering in your house with the thermostat turned way down, take comfort in knowing that someone far more needy than you has their heat full blast and the windows open because it’s too freaking hot in their house all on your dime. That’s what spreading the wealth around means in practice. That’s reparations for the slaves you, your parents and your grandparents and maybe even no ancestors never kept. That’s your punishment for being a greedy American.
And if you voted for The Great Pretender, you gave him your blessing to treat you like dirt. Maybe that thought will keep you warm.
Gee. Just out of curiosity, what are Obama’s approval ratings these days? For some reason, the MSM hasn’t mentioned that subject lately, although for what possible reason I cannot guess.
Not ONCE ! ! !
Not ONCE ! ! !
What we are looking at is the result of what happens when academics are actually put in charge of things. It is what happens, when we elect a President who doesn't like America, doesn't like Americans, and, doesn't like being an American.
Look at what happened in Texas earlier this year...rolling blackouts as some coal plants were shut down for maintenance and the windmills and remaining plants were not able to meet the demand during a cold snap. Texas authorities were even begging for electricity from Mexico. The same thing happened in February 2008 when virtually all Texas windmills were idled by a cold front. Blackouts were then narrowly averted because coal plants were still online. With Obama’s energy plans rolling blackouts will be the norm nationwide.
We are retiring this summer and purchasing a new property. we plan to install an alternative electrical system either solar or micro hydro as soon as we move in. If you can set up even a small system you will have some ability keep your lights on and your fridge cold when these rolling black outs start to hit. Unless Obama and the EPA are stopped its a sure thing. Forget the high prices. There just may not be enough power produced to go around at any price.
This SOB is evil. All the pain is due to take place after this prick leaves town.
Thousands of lower income people, or folks on fixed incomes will die from heat or cold by his hand.
“Under my plan of a cap-and-trade system, electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket,” Obama told the Chronicle . “Coal-powered plants, you know, natural gas, you name it, whatever the plants were, whatever the industry was, they would have to retrofit their operations. That will cost money. They will pass that money on to consumers.” Barrack Obama, January 2008, San Francisco Chronicle
I’m looking into solar panels. Power bills are already too high for my tastes.
Under the category of: We will starve the red states.
You simply can’t say enough good about what caused our founders to rebel, but it will never happen as long as there is forced National Education (Indoctrination) policy.
As more plants run on natural gas, a lot of folks will have their heating bills go up along with their electric bills.
Thanks, obie!
i put in an electric on-demand endless hot water system and my electric bill dropped below my delivery charge my only real drag anymore still is the fridge and the AC every now and again
Wait until the blackouts hit. (Can I use the term “black out”?)
