Republican Plans for Energy Reforms

While our President was announcing new standards on C02 emissions for power plants, the GOP manifesto complains about too many regulations! Yes, according to their plan, the evil regulators must be reined in before they ruin everything. According to the manifesto:

"Congress must undertake serious oversight of regulatory agencies, to deter officials from misusing their power and improperly administering the laws." ...."Most of all, Americans must finally be given a voice charting the nation’s energy future, instead of having radical new energy policies imposed upon them by regulators and ideologues."

If I am understanding our President, the EPA will take comments from the public before issuing their final policy. Does that sound like policies imposed upon us? 

For more information on the new rules and the process for implementation, go here: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2014/06/02/epa-carbon-rules_n_5428632.html

Lastly, again, I encourage you to vote during the midterms and vote for Democrats.

  1. Lets not regulate companies that blatantly flout laws, hide accidents and try to buy elections. That might be like communism or something.
