By requiring performance-based ratemaking, some states have declared war against high electric bills. But Arizona's Republican Legislature and Corporation Commission (ACC) have declared war against our cheapest, most price stable, abundant energy source, to make it harder to develop solar an…
Has anyone else noticed that the Department of Justice(DOJ) has been turned into a "Toady" for the current administration?? It seems that they are investigating any and all of the man in office revenge subjects (most if not all democrats). I can only suspect that this will continue until thi…

In as much as President Trump sees taxpayer money as his personal piggy bank, I feel that when he leaves office (or is removed, or impeached, etc.) that he be held accountable for any projects or expenses that enriched his family or anyone that personally benefitted from any of his polices. …
As our ruler's mental and physical health increasingly come into question, and with his appointing himself to be the world's police chief -- by which he conducts himself in a blundering manner -- it is things like these that put pride in the United States in a state of continuing decline, bo…
