Bankrupt the Coal Industry?

Obama has never run an organization, a business, or a state, yet he wants to run the country. He is not driven by the entrepreneurial spirit that has built America, but rather by a socialist agenda that seeks to make America less free and more reliant on government. In particular, a radio interview with Obama has surfaced which shows just how out of touch he is with the people and communities (many in swing states such as Pennsylvania, Ohio, and Virginia) who rely on the coal industry for jobs and energy. As Obama said in interviews not covered by the media, he seeks to "bankrupt" the coal industry and put together policies that will make electricity prices "skyrocket."


In a radio interview on January 17, 2008 with the San Francisco Chronicle, Sen. Obama described his energy plan, saying "So if somebody wants to build a coal-powered plant, they can; it's just that it will bankrupt them because they're going to be charged a huge sum for all that greenhouse gas that's being emitted."
