Its gonna get bad this summer. Here In Michigan there were 4 seperate bills introduced to force energy producers to cut output. (Increase declines is poor code for “cut more”)
House Bill 6069 (Increase mandated state power production declines )
Introduced by Rep. Gary McDowell (D) on April 22, 2010, to revise the mandating that natural gas utilities reduce the amount of energy they provide by .75 percent each year beginning in 2013. The bill would require that beginning in 2015 utilities reduce the amount of gas they provide by 1.5 percent, and 2.0 percent beginning in 2016.
House Bill 6068 (Increase mandated state power production declines )
Introduced by Rep. Joan Bauer (D) on April 22, 2010, to revise the mandating that natural gas utilities reduce the amount of gas they provide by .75 percent each year beginning in 2013. The bill would require that beginning in 2014 utilities reduce the amount of gas they provide by 1.25 percent, and 2.0 percent beginning in 2016
House Bill 6067 (Increase mandated state power production declines )
Introduced by Rep. Lisa Brown (D) on April 22, 2010, to revise the mandating that natural gas utilities reduce the amount of gas they provide by .75 percent each year beginning in 2013. The bill would require that beginning in 2013 utilities reduce the amount of gas they provide by 1.0 percent over the previous year.
House Bill 6063 (Increase mandated state power production declines )
Introduced by Rep. Fred Miller (D) on April 22, 2010, to revise the mandating that electric utilities reduce the amount of energy they provide by 1 percent each year beginning in 2012. The bill would require that beginning in 2013 utilities reduce the amount of power they provide by 1.25 percent over the previous year.
With the Obozo regime in charge, I thought the economy was going to come roaring back. Surely this would require more energy.
Unless of course the enviro-wizards have a "plan" to power the whole country with windmills and mayonnaise. Yeah, that's the ticket.
Why are we not surprised?
