Obama on Track to Bankrupt the Coal Industry and This Country

Remember back in 2008 when Barak Obama said this?  “If somebody wants to build a coal-fired power plant, they can.  It’s just that it will bankrupt them.  Under my plan, electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket.”  Well, well.  It took almost five years and his re-election, but now it looks as though Obama’s prophecy is coming true. 
Circumventing Congress and ignoring the will of the American people, Obama is forging ahead with his promises to thwart “climate change” through Executive Orders.
Why, one would ask, would he do this in the midst of an anemic economic recovery that could go on life-support at any moment?  Is he completely tone-deaf as to what this country and the American people want and need at this time?  Or is he seeing some positive signs that maybe, perhaps, things might be turning around and he needs to put the brakes on that?  It sounds crazy, but why would anyone make “climate change” a priority right now?
