BTW, my commute to work has been more interesting for quite a while now. Why? It's all those semis delivering goods to companies who ordered it. Towards the end of Bush's final years, there were hardly any semi's delivering goods.

The Republican answer to everything is simply "cut taxes". It is the wrong answer. Bill Clinton and the Democrats proved it in 1993 and Bush proved it was the wrong answer with his 2 tax cuts. We need to let ALL of the Bush tax cuts expire for our long term fiscal health.

Originally posted by msm859 View PostNo, Romney would never be more liberal then Obama. Power plants though will be there and reliable regardless who wins. However, if Romney did win and was able to get what he wants - making Bush tax cuts permanent, 20% additional tax cuts across the board, eliminate inheritance tax it will be an unmitigated disaster for 98% of the country.

Originally posted by GoingDown View PostI'm pleasantly surprised. It's starting to look like Romney just might have a chance of winning the election. Before it looked hopeless, but now, I think he just might have a chance of winning this election.
Our power plants might be saved after all. Maybe we will continue to have reliable electricity. And maybe I will be able to continue to afford to drive back and forth to Oregon to see my family every summer.

You'r welcome. Whenever there is a form of new technology and energy, prices start out high but gradually decreases. Nothing new. Dirty energy increases the cost of environmental clean up, rise in health care costs and loss productivity due to pollution/air quality.
Originally posted by GoingDown View PostOkay, no one was interested in that so back to the costs of going green.
Thank you, environmentalists, for making my electricity more expensive, now I have less money in my pocket to spend on everything else, and this effects most of the local businesses and government buildings around here, so they will just pass along the rising costs for electricity to me.
Thank you so much!
It really helps me to pay more for something as basic as electricity.
"PHOENIX (CBS5) -
Almost a million Valley residents who have their power or water service through SRP will see their utility bill go up beginning in November.
The SRP board of directors approved a 3.9 percent rate hike.
The increase is expected to generate an additional $100 million in revenue for the nonprofit public utility.
Company officials say the increase will help to fund reliable service, renewable resources and environmental upgrades.
The increase is effective beginning on the November billing cycle."
From S.R.P.:
"SRP needs to increase prices for these reasons:
Pay for new renewable energy sources. An increasing amount of the energy SRP delivers today is produced by solar, wind and geothermal sources. These sources are important to achieving sustainability goals but are more expensive than fossil fuel plants.
Complete required environmental upgrades. Mandatory improvements to Coronado Generating Station in St. Johns will enable us to further decrease emissions and continue to operate a lower-cost unit that supplies power to the Valley.
SRP has a mix of renewables such as wind, solar, geothermal and biomass energy, hydropower, conservation and energy-efficiency measures. We expect to spend $140.6 million this year and $184 million next year for sustainable sources and programs."
