AEP Rates: The Reality of Democrat Energy Policy

Roanoke Times, 1-27-10, Pg 1 & 10: Electric bills spur bills in Capitol. AEP rate increases have prompted lawmakers to seek restrictions.
-
Democrat Del. Ward Armstrong and Democrat Del. Roscoe Reynolds highlighted as seeking action against AEP and pandering to their constitutions who haven’t figured out that “It’s The Government – Stupid”; and you can be sure Armstrong & Reynolds and the Roanoke Times aren’t going to enlighten them either.

AEP is a government controlled and directed utility. That means they have been and will continue to do whatever the government tells them to do (just like today’s GM).
-
The two primary items driving AEP increased costs and therefore rates are directly related to government activities:
• High fuel costs: what have Kaine, M.Warner, Obama, done about reducing that?
• High refitting costs for EPA demands: what have Kaine, M.Warner, Obama done about reducing that?
-
Today’s AEP bills are going to pale in comparison to the Democrat plan for shutting down all carbon-based fuels and switching to solar and wind systems. Obama swore to bankrupt any company that even tries to start-up a new coal-fired plan. Apparently the Democrats are big on shutting-down and turning-off but not so much on providing new required domestic energy facilities to support our people and industries.
Note the Virginia Highland Wind Farm fiasco.

The Cap&Tax program embraced by the Democrats including Obama-Pelosi-Reid with Perriello’s vote and support will not only directly hit the electric rates but also all major energy dependent products like vehicle fuels, fertilizers, cement and road paving. After enacting the Democrat Cap&Tax all energy-centric manufacturing will relocate off-shore.

The Democrats have not done anything to solve our dependency on our enemies for our oil supply thereby letting this problem compound and leaving us subject to yet another boycott disaster and ever increasing money & jobs flowing out of our country.
