Under my plan of a cap-and-trade system, electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket. Candidate Barack Obama, Same interview as above
Were going to have to cap the emission of greenhouse gasses. That means that power plants are going to have to adjust how they generate power but a lot of us who can afford it are going to have to pay more per unit of electricity, and that means were going to have to change our light bulbs, were going to have to shut the lights off in our houses. Candidate Barack Obama, Iowa PBS interview, November 9, 2007
So much for President Obamas claims to be for an all-of-the-above approach...
Right .not like Minnesota gets cold or anything likethat ...
These people are sick.
--freeze in the dark, you stupid jerk---
Hmmm. Let’s see how Minnesotans would like it if this were to occur with the caveat that Minnesota would not derive any benefits from products or services produced from coal or it’s by-products. I’m sure most Minnesotans aren’t in favor of the asshat gov daytons idea. At least the ones outside the major metro areas.
Go for it Mark. I don’t live in Minnesota so if you build a bunch of over-priced solar and wind and other BS “clean” energy plants and force MN to use them, it means coal will be cheaper for me. You live with the consequences of what you vote for.
here is what it’s all about: “Degrowth is an essential economic strategy to pursue in overdeveloped countries like the United Statesfor the well-being of the planet, of underdeveloped populations, and, yes, even of the sick, stressed, and overweight consumer populations of overdeveloped countries. It is also considered a movement that offers a path toward moving back to living within the limits-to-growth dilemma”.

Somewhere in Dayton’s portfolio, I will bet you will find some Green Energy Investments. It is always “follow the money”.
‘swhy we took our Yankee money and went south...
Minnesota DemonicRat Grand Poobah Dayton should lead by example and voluntarily stop personally releasing carbon dioxide and other noxious global-warming gases into the atmosphere.
I believe they should eliminate coal use also. Let them freeze to death. We are now entering into the age of stupidity. The only chance of survival is to let those advocating for and pushing it to kill themselves off as soon as possible. Then the survivors will be able to rebuild.
The guy probably couldn’t change his own tire, but he knows all there is to know about producing energy.
When is the last time he actually saw his own utility bill or wrote a check to pay for it?
Then what should I use in my laser printer? Pixie dust?
How many research grants are available for a study of how to use the energy in coal in a non-polluting manner? (crickets)
lead the nation.
into an abyss from whence it may never climb out of.
Left there 40 years ago, still have a lot of family there.
after coal is banned, what next, wood burning?
Dayton could live off his family fortune for years,, but no..
Like Bloomberg.
Nanny knows best.
FL will only accept cold, conservative MN citizens who want to relocate.
Your papers will be checked at the border.
