Mr. Sapatoni, Are you auditioning for SNL? Getting a little over your skis aren't you Mikey, after all, Mr. O'Neil is a former federal prosecutor and RI Attorney General who put away bad guys, wise guys, labor racketeers, crooked politicians and the like while you took up space at Harvard on the Hill, CCRI. However, .I will stick with your written facts as you have presented them here in an attempt to interject some reason.

" This resistance to moving toward our future independance from the limited fossil fuels remaining is not the majority opinion anymore. " REALLY? Where is your source attribution? Memo to Mikey...We are about to become a net exporting energy country. Check the Lundberg news letter, the petroleum Institute, any energy desk expert from JP Morgan, Morgan Stanley, or any other expert who actually covers the industry. THAT MEANS REAL JOBS!

You say there is no explanation for rising gas prices other than greed...Earth to Mikey...Production is down for at least two obvious reasons; Several refineries have had reductions in production due to the horrible weather around the country, including NEW JERSEY. You remember, Super storm Sandy, and the blizzard? Also the switch over from heating oil to summer grade fuel drives costs

"I cannot believe people still are buying suv's and pickups that they do not need that get terrible gas mileage than complain about gas prices! "

REALLY? Perhaps you would care to share with us how many Toyota Prius cars are owned and driven by the Sapatoni family? Talk the talk, then walk the walk...

"The start up cost for wind and solar do seem high than dirty cheap energy on the short term." Did you ever attend ANY of the hearings when this trojan horse legislation was foisted on the RI public how it was going to reduce energy costs and create jobs at Quonset Point? When Rep. Larry Earhardt was one of the very few people who did his homework and asked the tough questions, including about rate front-loads, and never got straight answers, were you there, did you watch the hearings on Capitol TV?

I get it Mikey...Your next original thought would be your first. You'd rather throw out talking points from God knows where and present them as fact. I suppose in your world natural gas is a terrible idea as alternative energy as well? You being a big time labor family and staunch Democrat interested in job creation, I suggest you educate yourself about energy, and especially the potential for Quonset point in utilizing the natural gas right off our coast. You best have a conversation with some of former Gov. Phil Noel's inner circle. They will give you an education about nat. gas and how many jobs could be created right here...PLEASE, no more tilting at windmills. Obama's henchmen have thrown $85B at alternative energy projects and have little to show but Chapter 11filings. Obama's energy policy is connected at the hip with large campaign contributors from these so called GREEN energy companies with nothing to show for it Think of it as STUDIO 38 with billions of dollars involved...The bankruptcy records are in the public domain. I suggest you look and see what a rouse this GREEN energy investment has turned into.
