    Unconstitutionality Of Energy Mandates

    Conveniently, the bigger power concerns in the state capitulated to ridiculous 10% energy mandates during the Granholm administration.

    In 2012, an even MORE ridiculous 25x25 requirement was promoted (and failed) as a constitutional amendment, in a state which has a monstrous electricity appetite as a leader in manufacturing.  Now as the legislature approaches the crossroads of [Oh gosh we can't meet the 10%!] and [What the hell happened to electricity prices?] in Michigan, another 35% 'mandate' pusher shows up with a 'conservative' emphasis and the useful idiots who have already signed on.

    As soon as Michigan State Representative Mike Shirkey announced a solid-as-steel return to electricity competition in our state, the rust of cronyism began eating away at the plan. Snyder stepped up the call for increased renewable energy in the midst of the current mandate meltdown, and a new shadow group was formed with friendly 'conservative' faces to front it. (see useful idiot mention above)

    Sometimes however, its worth looking to other experts who have a different take on such things.

    Are the mandates even legal?

    Thanks to the TB912, and Dining Room productions for another useful and informative video.

    And On a related note: Cap Con today, has another take on this.

    I realize for a lot of folks, watching an hour long presentation is a stretch.

    Little things are worth paying attention to however.

    At 1:03:45, Fuscaldo notes the cronyism connection, and how these things can be discovered once we start peeling back the onion.
