Duke Energy Plans Offshore Wind Pilot Project

"Carbon Offset Program"
Last week I received an e-mail from Duke wanting an extra $4 to $8 a month for this Carbon offset program, to reduce my carbon footprint. I wrote back asking how me giving them and extra $8 a month would make me use less electricity but I haven't heard back yet. I also ask them to stop trying to scam their customers, and trying to collect money to pay for Obama's Cap and Trade tax (carbon credits). Our electric bills are going to triple here soon enough without starting early. After reading this article the money is probably to help pay for the windmills.

Pundits Are Wrong: Healthcare Reform Will Increase Profits

For profit or not for profit doesn't make any difference. Even the largest private insurers United Group and Wellpoint only show about 4% profit over the last 12 months. The government will keep lowering it's premiums until no insurance company can compete. If you owned a busness and paid out say 5 million in insurance for your employees and the government offered you the same package for 1 million wouldn't you take it? Of coarse you would. Thats whats going to happen. Obama has already stated he wants a single payer plan.

Pundits Are Wrong: Healthcare Reform Will Increase Profits

The only problem is "Public Option" will run those private insurance companies out of busness in a few years. Being forced to cover everyone and pre-existing conditions would be enough to close them all down but to also have to compete with the government that is more than willing to take a lose for many many years (see post office) will make it impossible for them to stay in busness. If your long on all those drug companies my advise is to run don't walk to your broker and sell like there's no tomorrow because there may not be.

Health Care: Public vs. Private and the Impact on Health Plan Stocks

Shout it loud. I've been tell everyone that will listen the same thing. Public option will put hundreds of thousands of people out of work also.

The Healthcare 'Rationing' Canard

I love it when these people say "people will die because they can't afford insurance" and in the next breath say the government will save money by dening coverage on things they think is to costly. By the way the bill says that a board of 27 will decide if you get the coverage you need. Out of the 27 members only one has to be a doctor. Listen to the sound logic behind Obamacare, this plan will cover everything, for the people that can't afford private insurance, (small print now) that we deem cost efficent. Cost efficent means if you are able to pay taxes for a long time. For the things we don't cover you can buy private insurance to fill the gaps. WHAT???? if you can afford private insurance to "fill the gaps" why do you need the government plan at all? Obamacare forces private insurance to cover all pre-existing conditions, which will force them out of business in a few years, but the "plan" has enough wiggle room so that the government plan does not have to pay for all pre-existing conditions. I could probably retire today if I didn't have to buy insurance. As must as I want to retire this plan will put tens of thausands of people out of work and cause the healthcare to drop ten fold in this country. I would rather keep on working than have some politician deciding if I'm worth sending to the doctor.

Carbon Trading Set to Triple by 2012

Does anyone else in here live in Indiana? Estimates show that my electric bill will go from $100 a month to $500 or more if this cap and tax scam goes through. Indiana gets about 96% of our electricity from coal fired plants, the highest in the nation.

The Obama Effect: Is Clean Energy Outperforming the Market?

This guy (Tom Konrad) once posted an article here dragging down a company basiclly saying the stock wasn't worth having. Turns out the CEO of the company had been to busy to give him an interview and it made him mad. I wouldn't trust anything this guys says.

Tang Capital Partners' Proxy Statement for Vanda Pharmaceuticals Calls for Liquidation

Of coarse Tang wants to liquidate, he owns over 6 million shares and his company owns another 6 million. He's looking for a quick buck. The FDA should not allow this to happen because they are the ones that caused the down fall of the company. VANDA has a new drug that works better and is cheaper with fewer side effects then the drugs that do the same thing sold by the big companys. The FDA can't have them loosing money so they all but bankrupted Vanda. Yes I own a few shares. The FDA stopped this small company from selling thier new drug on the day it was supposed to hit the market. The share price went from around $6.50 to .75 in 2 hours. The FDA is supposed to "maybe" ok the drug on 5/6/09. Tang wants to make his money just incase the drug isn't approved.

Three Things Obama Will Do to Advance Alternative Energy

Dear frflyer,
Your first paragragh tells us all how stupid we are and then your rant begins, coal is killing 24000 americans a year more than homicides and AIDS combined. Since there are over 16000 homicides and over 15000 Aids related deaths per year that pretty much makes the rest of your speech, crap.
