You'll Have No Power And You Will Like It

 While campaigning in 2019, Joe Biden guaranteed "We're going to end fossil fuels." What he didn't say is that eliminating fossil fuels will create a troublesome scarcity of electricity.

Now with the power of the presidency behind him - again we ask, how could such a disastrous event happen? - Biden is just a few pages of paperwork away from forcing natural gas- and coal-fired power plants to sharply cut their greenhouse emissions.

If the emission caps can't be met, power plants will then have to adopt carbon capture technology, which is quite expensive.

"Ben Franklin," they said, "Is often heralded as the man who discovered the power of electricity. Joe Biden wants to be the president who abolished it."

Output cuts that will be required under the proposed regime "Are so stringent," says the CTUP, that "Fossil fuel plants - which supply around 65% of America's power - would be technologically incapable of complying." The only way they will be able to stay open and generating power is if Americans' utility bills are raised "Dramatically." If not, they close, and the power they produce is gone.

There won't be enough electricity to meet demand because the natural gas and nuclear power that's taken off line won't be fully replaced, so California is looking at a future of blackouts, rationing and rates more punishing than they already are.

In addition to the proposed power plant rules, the administration has decided, with zero input from voters and no regard for the Constitution, that we will all one day be driving electric vehicles.
