I wish we could fight as well and as hard as we have on the issue of guns. But the threat of individual loss of our guns and 2A rights motivates us. Harder to do that with an electric bill.
If or when the power bill substantially spikes, we will. Until then we'll grumble and shake our heads, but nothing else.
Realistically, we have a LOT of coal. 246,643 metric megatons. Not kilotons, megatons. We use roughly 720 metric megatons of coal per year. That's 342 years worth of proved recoverable coal usage. It's dirty and highly radioactive, but that's what the duck squeezers have us still using.
There's also natural gas. 187,300,000,000,000 cubic meters of it. Proven reserves, mind you. We use 63,000,000,000 cubic meters per year. If my math is correct, that's 2973 years worth of natural gas. Though it is projected to vastly increase while coal has decreased by 10% over the last 15 years, due to carbon concerns.
We're good on power, despite what idiots say. Granted, we're going after cheaper stuff first. As time goes on, things will get more expensive. But then we develop technology to make it cheaper. See fracking. Which is (now) very safe, cheap and clean.
