GET READY ITS GONNA GET WILD, GOOD THING I TOPPED OFF LAST WEEK IN PROPANE AT 1.90 WITH A 10 CENT FOR CASH DISCOUNT SHOULD LAST ME AT LEAST A YEAR.
TOPPED OFF MY GASOLINE TANK AT 2.58, WITH ONLY 1 CAR NOW THE 500 GALS WILL LAST ME AT LEAST 6 -8 MONTHS. TDD
Partly Due To Colorado's Power Switch
Colorado officially set in motion the closing of 2 coal fired power plants, the switching of several coal plants to gas and authorized construction of 2 new gas power plants.
Gas was a bargain because the demand was lower than for liquid fuels. Due to that the giant liquid fuel companies were able to leverage their way into ownership of the a good portion of the gas and will now manipulate prices at their will. By the time that gas generation comes on line the fuel cost will be so high that the oil giants came take over some of the electric generation. Welcome to that free open energy market they promised years ago. One of the results of such a market is that one or a small group can own everything just as easily as a 1,000 independant competing companies, but the one or few can make a much greater return.
Ted, you will just be another slave.
We have a choice "Live free or die."
BTW, this will soon become P&R.
