Anti-coal Policies Causing Florida Electricity Rate Hikes

[Lakhota]

I grew up in coal country. It's dirty, stinky, and killing the planet. However, I did like it for the blacksmith forge. Other than that - **** COAL.

You really are a 200 proof moron.

Please tell us all about clean coal, Finger Boy.

Obama PROMISED skyrocketing electricity costs land people elected him based on that promise. Now, when it's the ONLY promise he has kept; the ONLY lie he didn't substitute for the truth, they're all bent outta shape.

Well screw them. They already screwed themselves.

This fails as a straw man fallacy, where you seek to contrive and propagate a lie misrepresenting your opponent’s position, as there is no 'anti-coal policy.'

Coal pollutes when it is mined, transported to the power plant, stored, and burned.

It warms my heart to see so many wind turbines popping up atop the Allegheny Mountains.

But not nearly as much fun as watching birds slaughtered by the thousands! What's your plan? Make headdesses for Pocahontas Warren's campaign workers with the feathers?

Obama isn't my guru. Jesus. Global climate change IS happening, it isn't a weirdo liberal thing, it is a down to earth fact. We need to find a solution to this mess instead of prolonging this carbon oil/coal dependence. We can find a alternative, or we can die. And we wil die as a race if we don't solve this problem soon. I am not a whacked out liberal, either. I am a realist.

How many of you have ever seen mountaintop removal mining in action?

I was born and raised in a heavy coal state. I know the problems. I've seen the hell from mountaintop removal mining. I've seen communities destroyed. I've seen devastating pollution. I've seen devastating water quality contamination. I've seen the human cost. I've seen the public health costs. The days of coal must end.

They still advertise "clean coal" in my area. I grew up around coal - and none of it was clean. China is currently killing itself with coal pollution.

Why would I waste my time telling you about a joke? Coal fired power plants that don't produce CO2 will never be economic. Coal is already more than clean enough.

And yet you who would put coal mining families on welfare continue to use computers that run on, guess what, ELECTRICITY. If you'd just shut 'em down, all of you, there's be ever-so-much-less need for generation. You can come back when you gear your beanie's propeller to a generator, OK? Exemption for those who already are using solar but no free pass for those who murder birds for their personal convenience.

Horseshit. It should really be called "hilltop removal mining." It doesn't cause "devastating pollution," contaminate the water or have any kind of noticeable impact on health of surround communities. That's all environmental wacko propaganda.

AGW is a leftwing scam to loot us all and put us all under the heal of the socialists boot.

It's hardly surprising that the biggest source of energy in the country would be the biggest source of pollution. That proves nothing. Coal fired power plants have become so clean that their emissions aren't even noticeable.

Socialist boots don't heal. They DO have heels. High, thin stylish ones 'cause today's socialists are mostly failed fashion model wannabes.

Horseshit. Obama is waging a jihad on coal. He said he planned on doing so before he was elected. The sole intention of the EPA's recently released regulations on coal fire power plants is to wipe them out.

I see your pictures of coal mining before the land is reclaimed. Here are some photos of restored land:

See: nothing to get excited about.

You lying dumbass. Are you suggesting the water quality and communities have also been restored? Lying horseshit.

You sound like Don Blankenship.

Prove they haven't. BTW, those communities are there only because of the presence of the coal mine.
