Obama promised to make electricity rates “skyrocket” in 2008. He has kept that promise. The result is the destruction of an entire industry that provides thousands of jobs and cheap electricity.

Middle Class Caught it Obama’s Green Crossfire
American families, workers and taxpayers are caught in a vicious crossfire from President Obama’s army of renewable energy, anti-hydrocarbon, anti-economic growth regulators. From the White House to Energy Secretary Chu, Interior Secretary Salazar, EPA Administrator Jackson and thousands of unaccountable bureaucrats, the administration is raising energy costs, killing jobs, stifling job creation, and turning dreams of opportunity and prosperity into nightmares for millions of Americans.

Will The War On Coal Unplug Obama In November?
As coal use drops, job losses rise and electricity prices skyrocket, an electoral map of the 16 top coal-mining states does not bode well for an administration whose energy policy consists of algae and exploding electric cars. – IBD

The Human Consequences of Obama’s EPA War on Coal
EPA policies may add $52 billion to Americans’ electricity bills by 2022. That means higher energy bills for Maria Tworek and everyone else who buys electricity. There are real, human consequences of electricity price hikes, something that policymakers would do well to keep in mind.

The Obama administration’s anti-energy policies and supporters
Americans are being deliberately starved of the energy sources we have in abundance. We are being robbed in the form of higher prices for electricity produced in the most expensive fashion, wind and solar, instead of affordable coal. Not only are gasoline prices up, but the government continues to demand more mileage per gallon of gas.
