Healthcare, Energy Sectors Shouldn't Fear Obama

Is Obama really going to discard our number #1 natural resource, coal ? Let's discount his inane campaign remarks. Coal will remain invaluable to our energy needs.
Coal should not be linked to oil. Yet, the herd on the street dumps coal every time oil falls. Last time I looked we still need to generate electricity. It will be an eternity before alternate power sources ; wind, solar, biofuels can even begin to make a dent in our environment. No matter how much Boone Pickens expects to reap from his wind investments, even his money won't expedite any serious changes in our energy sources.
Obama has alot to learn abour practicality. Such as : leave the capital gains tax alone, don't stiffle the oil companies because windfall profit taxes do not work..Bama will get real. The horrendous global economy will be his instructor, not left-wing anarchists. And, big-money special interests aren't ever leaving Washington..Money rules in DC despite the promises of the Messiah, things will never change in that cesspool.
