Many Democrats seek to destroy the coal/natural gas-based electric power system based on agenda-driven, highly speculative fear of a climate apocalypse caused by humans using fossil fuel to live their lives. Coal is on the firing line now with few in the utility industry defending the use of coal long term. Too many regulated electric utilities are outright opponents of future coal with plans to completely remove coal plants. Among other motives is short-term financial gain while completely disregarding the well-being of the rate payers and the long-term financial health of their enterprise. Stop coal plant retirements now before US electricity supply becomes permanently scarce and expensive.
