sbark - 7/23/2016 15:43 Reduce the regulations that have been mounded on the coal fired elec. industry, and they can come closer to competing .........now the EPA is pushing carbon tax on them............they will always move the goalpost further as the coal industry spends the money to try and meet the previous EPA reg Obama admin promised they will go broke..........and that is happening as they try to meet the EPA regs that always change for the worse. To a certain degree . . . Electric industry can't go broke. They simply continue to raise rates. Consumers pick up the tab and Congress/President knows this. Coal is down and going out due to EPA regulation by the Greeny's. Congress/President supported this and it plays into the "new jobs", "new economy" plan to keep from the Nation from going bankrupt . . . . . . New, clean energy produces a whole new industry and more job / job growth then coal or old energy. |
