“decommissioning power plants will.”
Now, you’re talking. THAT is a major issue with me. As we add need and decrease power plants we can find ourselves in a nasty situation where it becomes harder and harder to maintain the power grid load levels and keep them balanced. At some point it becomes impossible to keep them balanced and every time they turn on a grid section it goes down because of overload, making it impossible to keep any section up at any time.
I believe Obama and his liberal Luddite ilk are after that exact effect.
Black Swan *ping*. Your two cents on what might be a Black Swan in our future?
I don’t believe they are Luddites.
They want the technology and energy use to be available, but only to the “elite” who know how to use energy prudently, not you and I or the masses.
They follow Nietzsche’s assertion that holding all men accountable to the same moral standard is detrimental to the “higher” men, and therefore detrimental to society.
“I believe Obama and his liberal Luddite ilk are after that exact effect.”
You have to condition people to accept a power grid that is spotty and unreliable to get them to embrace “green” energy that is on only when the wind blows or the sun is out.
