John Kasich talks about guns, coal, Tom Noe
The Columbus Dispatch ^ | 12-16-2018 | Darrel Rowland

Gun laws

“You will get gun reform when the public says they’ve had enough. Until they’ve said enough, it’s not going to happen. ... There’s going to come a point where people say enough of this.”

Constitutional amendments

He would support a GOP measure to make changes more difficult “only if they come with the idea of making it easier to get on the ballot with the (initiated statute).

“If it’s not, I think we should reject it, because the public needs to be heard. I’d rather this (trivial) stuff doesn’t go into the constitution, but if you don’t give an alternative, I’m not for shutting (the) people’s voice down.”

Wisconsin, Michigan antics

Even if Democrat Richard Cordray had won in November, Kasich had no desire to lessen the governor’s powers — although he heard “murmurs” that Ohio lawmakers wanted to do just that.

“It’s terrible. If they tried to do that here, I’d be going crazy. You don’t limit the next person’s authority or power. That’s crazy.”

Kasich’s 2016 campaign

“There was never enough money, there was never enough publicity.

“The media built (President Donald) Trump into what he is, and now if you tell them that, they’re very angry and say, ‘We didn’t do that.’ They gave him a billion dollars worth of free press; come on.”

The future of coal

“Coal’s on its way out. It’s too expensive.

″... The economics doesn’t work. Nobody’s going to be investing in new coal plants.”

Meanwhile, the legislature should back off of stringent set-back requirements for windmills.

Don’t go away mad, John...

Oh, well, okay. Go away mad. Who cares? You’re the junk mail of politics and pretty much the only person on the planet who thinks you’re important.

Kasich - eat this:

18 Dec: IEA: Coal 2018: Analysis and forecasts to 2023
DOWNLOAD REPORT
Key Findings
After two years of decline, global coal demand grew by 1% in 2017 to 7585 Mt as stronger global economic growth increased both industrial output and electricity use. Driven by strong coal power generation in China and India, coal demand is expected to grow again in 2018...
In particular, global coal power generation increased by over 250 TWh, or around 3%, and accounted for about 40% of the additional power generation worldwide. Coal kept its share in the power mix at 38% after some years of decline.
Global coal demand is forecast to be stable through 2023...

Coal’s engines of growth
Meanwhile, the unmatched period of coal power generation growth in India is set to continue, having grown continuously since 1974. With the Indian economy expected to grow over 8% per year to 2023 and the electrification process continuing, power demand is forecast to rise by more than 5% per year over the period...

South and Southeast Asia are the second engine of growth.
Indonesia, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Philippines and Vietnam have more than 800 million people combined, yet their average annual per capita electricity consumption is just one seventh of that in Europe. Increasing coal power generation, supported by new coal plants under construction, will be the main driver of coal demand growth in those countries...READ ON
