So they apply and the EPA just stalls until ... whenever.
The Chicago way applied from the White House.
Interesting take. The goal of this administration is to cause electric rates to “skyrocket” (Obama 2008), have gas at $8 (Chu, 2008), and probably worse that won’t say in public. So everything they say and do must be viewed in that context. They are dead set on CO2 reduction and they won’t get there even with electric rates double or triple (will have to be even higher than that). But another approach is to shut down all refineries and force them all overseas. They get their CO2 reduction goal and maybe some foreign campaign contributions as gravy. Certainly it is foreign interests behind the whole global warming deal, only a few Americans are really active in it and most of them are socialists like Soros or paid-off scientists.
