No they won't go back to coal. That is the problem. You can't see all this nonsense is to push everyone to wind and solar which is not sustainable in a country of this size and the subsidies that are required to keep them running. Hell I just saw a story where chinese solar panels were just purchased to put on a federal building in Illiniois or wherever it was. What happened to all those solar companies in the US that the stimulus funded?
Not entirely true. The PRIMARY reason natural gas is so cheap is because of new technology.
This new tech has caused a boom and a subsequent glut of product on the market. This last Spring they started scaling back that expansion because they aren't making enough money. In the future you will have a lot more demand on this supply whether it's power plants, manufacturing, housing or even cars.
I'm not against NG but to expect these prices to remain low is a pipe dream.

That's the conspiracy that the radical right always bring up. Obama is taking guns away. Obama is implementing jihad. Obama is pushing everyone to wind and solar. Oh Please.
As powerful as the POTUS is, he can't dictate the market. Sorry. The market dictates the market.

And no one here is even remotely inferring the natural gas price is sustainable.
The market will decide what happens next. Not the president. Y'all should be cognizant of that.

How is this a conspiracy? Are you blind.
What do guns and jihads have to do with this? Oh nothing.
