Breyton power plant

An interesting article... Yeah I don't like the source, but it's an eye opener for sure.

If you'd just get rid of the environmental regulations, safety regulations, pricing regulations etc... we'd all have cheap electricity to fuel a growing economy.

Well, we'd probably all have cancer also but what's the biggie?

Or maybe just have what is necessary and makes sense.
There is maybe some middle ground , don't you think ?
I swear half the regulations are just to create hack jobs and make someone who otherwise wouldn't be, feel important

Well, fortunately we have Elizabeth Warren - she'll yell at 'em.

Locals are getting what they want, the plant shutting down. Everyone will get screwed one way or other. Ironic how it happens after they build the massive cooling towers (which I can see form my house 10 miles away).

And higher power prices from the grid as the result of decreased capacity.
