Since 2009, South Carolina Electric and
Gas's rates have increased 23.3% for residential electricity.
President Barack Obama took office in January of 2009.
On Sept. 24, the South Carolina Public
Utility Commission approved the latest request for a rate increase
request from SCE&G.
The average 2.82% rate increase will go
into effect on bills issued on Oct. 30.
While media and anti-corporate
attackers will blame SCE&G for gouging customers, look no further
than the Obama Administration for the reason.
Obama has made it so difficult, costly,
and almost illegal to use coal as a fuel source, power companies,
including SCE&G are abandoning cheap, clean and abundant coal as
an energy source.
Dumping coal pleases the radical
environmentalists, who really oppose capitalism more than they care
about the environment.
Damaging the family, income through
astronomical energy costs is a classic example of how liberalism, and
its irrational polices, hurt Americans.
The price of gasoline has been an
exorbitant tax (in affect) on jobless Americans, too. Why is there no
Keystone Pipeline to send a message to speculators that we are
serious about energy independence. We all the oil we need, but Obama
refuses to let us go after it because of the myths he, and his party
perpetuate about our energy sources.
And the media does not help by refusing
to place blame on the true culprit.
Not only that, the Obama Administration
has spent at least $90 billion on Green Energy and solar panels. The
technology is just not near where it needs to be to be considered a
legitimate alternative.
Remember Solyndra went bankrupt shortly after Obama paid them off with government funds.
But it sounds good to the media, and the
left, so Obama has squanders taxpayers' money on it, while Americans
suffer with no jobs and rising power bills.
