EPA Goes After Coal Fired Power Plants

The EPA has gone ahead with controversial new rules for coal-fired power plants. The rules require the plant operators to install smoke scrubbing equipment or shut down. They're the most expensive EPA rules ever. The agency estimates they'll cost industry nearly $10 billion a year. Critics say the rules threaten stability of the electrical grid and cost jobs. Sen. James Inhofe (R-Okla.) is the top Republican on the Senate's environment committee. He vows to file a rare joint resolution to get the rule overturned.

EPA needs to be dis-banded. Along with TSA and a couple more agencies.

Obama said he would shut down all of our natural resources and keep us slaves to foreign countries. I hope the people who voted for Obama suffer the most and the longest.
