Lack of Gas Pipes Means VT Heading for Elec Blackouts, LNG Imports

For years Vermont has made millions of dollars selling Renewable Energy Credits (RECs) to other states--a scam that allows pretentious environmentalists to claim they're helping out the environment when in fact they still burn the same fossil fuels and biomass (i.e. woodburning) as they always did by paying a fee, a REC, and absolving themselves of feeling bad about it. Think of modern-day RECs like the Catholic Church selling indulgences in the Middle Ages to absolve you of your sins, or at least lessen the punishment for your sins. RECs are the new indulgences of the post-everything era we live in now. Selling REC indulgences is about to go away for Vermonters, and it may lead to widespread blackouts.
