Reid wants closure of coal power plant near Las Vegas

Harry's thrown down the gauntlet:"U.S. Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, D-Nev., on Tuesday called for the closure of a coal-fired power plant outside Las Vegas, saying he expects opposition from NV Energy Inc. but the facility is antiquated and a health risk to American Indians who live nearby."

NV Energy might just fool you Harry. They could shut the plant down and let YOU figure out where the baseload and spinning generation will come from. Of course JP Morgan and Chase would gladly broker some extra power from Texas, for a PRICE. Kind of ENRONish,huh? Let's see, indian gaming has taken away a share of the Nevada gaming mystic. The housing crash under the watchful eye of Barney Frank. Now you say it's time to shut down this coal fired plant that has been servicing 335,000 homes. Sounds like a recipe for a perfect storm, that will ultimately affect home ownership, property values, and tax revenues in the State. Are you ready to file for bankruptcy Harry? ARE YOU?

Harry the weed, what an idiot, power bills climbing, food bills climbing, gas up up and away, pay down, yet this idiot wants us all to pay more for power by closing the plants that help keep the bills a bit lower, let alone the jobs that will be lost, and not just in Navada. I can only wish the old idiot has a stroke and becomes even more worthless to the state of Nevada.

Coal fired plants are on the decline due to pollution. In the years to come there will be even fewer of them in use.
