Mr. Elliot,
57% of the nations electricity comes from coal.
We have abundant (hundreds of years worth) on U.S. soil
It is ludicrous to pretend we can eliminate our need for coal.
You can’t build enough windmills and solar to replace it.
Do the math.
I actually agree with Mike, problem is he don’t want to discuss nuclear

Actully I am thinking, and most people have a propensity to hate change, because thinking hurts and repetition is easy to fathom.
The light from the future is bright and hurts.
Go back to sleep.
You really have no idea.
Obama can’t wave his magic wand and create the future you imagine.
Your electric rates will double and then triple but the what do you care.
I’m sure there will be a government subsidy along to make up the difference.

Change is never easy Mike.
I am sure it was hard to find a gas station 100 years ago.
Yes the government needs to step in on this.
Private industry is slow to react in this country due to the simple fact there is no more industry in this country.
All the suits are pushing paper from one desk to another with out making anything material.
Toyota is set to be the number one selling automobile for a reason and my head hurts from the light.

Those who hate change are those who are fully invested in things of the past which if changed would place their whole existence, now and in the supposed life to come in jeopardy. Those who do not live their own life but a life that was chosen for them and those who have no contingency plan in the face of C H A N G E. A sorry lot of Luddites, if you ask me.

Change to what?
I am sure it was hard to find a gas station 100 years ago.
The government didn’t build them thought did they?
Yes the government needs to step in on this.
Why? Smart businessmen can’t figure out how to make a profit?
Private industry is slow to react in this country due to the simple fact there is no more industry in this country.
Private industry responds to the profit motive.
All the suits are pushing paper from one desk to another with out making anything material.
Obama has never made or ran anything.
Toyota is set to be the number one selling automobile for a reason and my head hurts from the light.
That’s right the free market produces winners and loosers.
And now we have GM and Ford begging for your money to survive.:roll:
I’ll bet Obama gives it them to save the unions.

Mikey, Obama won’t have to save Ford & GM, Bush will do it before he leaves office. I really don’t understand what the problem is with Socialism, its good enough for the Fat-Cats on Wall Street and the International Banking Whores around the world. What… is Republican backed trickle-down economics dead? :-k

We should have been building dozens of nuke plants during the last 30 years.
Obama says: Under my plan of a cap and trade system, electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket .

Nuclear is definitely the way to go, especially considering the techniques the French have developed to virtually eliminate radioactive waste. But no, let us continue to waste money on expensive “renewable energies” like solar and wind, plus dirty energies like coal. :roll:
