I live in Sarasota.

It seems to me Florida is forcing out most manufacturing industries, including mine, boat building.

Methinks the governor is in the midst of respelling his name.

Ummmm... Burning oil still produces emissions.

It's past time to start building nuclear plants.

Methinks the governor is already under the impression that his name is misspelled. He needs to be set straight. The utility should turn right around and propose a nuke plant in the same spot. Let’s see if the rhetoric still holds.

Nuclear plants open a whole new can of worms for the enviro-whackos. I agree, though, we should pepper the country with nuclear plants.

And why is that important?

Anthropogenic Global Warming is a myth, remember.

And now we have our own “Governor Moonbeam”, along with the reject transients, northern liberal transplants and the hispanic invasion poluting our, once fine, state. Sad to say, it looks like Florida is becoming another California.

Becoming an expat is looking better all the time, except for the fact that the government has been holding my passport, renewal, hostage for four months now! Is this a new form of population/travel control?

If I represented the power companies, I would have took the stage and given the governor an even better offer. Not one more watt of power from coal would be sold in FL.

Then, we’d see how he likes explaining $900 electric bills to his constituents and/or sitting in the dark.

No, I think Michigan is the new California. I guess Florida is on its way to becoming the new Michigan.

you missed my point! If you think the tree kissers are gonna raise he(( over a coal fired unit and let a nuke slide you’re gravely mistaken.
