Why hasn't NJ's energy plan been prompted through the media? Because nobody would ever want it! Just remember this link right here is all marketing material.

Things are happening phases, but very soon new construction builds throughout NJ will not be allowed to have natural gas hooked up. The plan is to make New Jersey dependent on state electric by 2050. Even written out in the plan they want us to be on electric cars consuming NJ energy, but the costs are going to be so absorbent that we will forced to take public transportation through the state, through his public transportation infrastructure.

None of this is in theory, its happening right now. If you have been down to the LBI, Ocean City, AC, Cape May the past two summers you probably saw very large ships parked not too far from the beaches. They have been mapping out the ocean floors for all the windmills to go into the state.

There was a very big 116 mile gas-line project "PennEast Gasline" that was happening between Northeast Pa, into Mercer County to keep up with demand and lower energy costs for NJ residents. Through regulation challenges the Murphy Administration was able to keep it from happening. Murphy wants your gas prices to be high, so that it can compete the electric.

This is a pretty large news event. Kind of interesting that no major new sources, picked it up besides all the local papers that aren't owned large conglomerate media outlets. Many people here get their local news from the Patch, NJ.com and other sources but fail to realize they are all owned and just follow the agenda of the much larger conglomerates.

Three did not respond to requests for comment. They include Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), who is aligned with two campaign accounts, the Senate Leadership Fund and Team McConnell, that together collected $1.12 million from FTX sources in October, according to federal filings. Sens. John Thune (R-S.D.) and Joni Ernst (R-Iowa) collected $9,200 and $8,700, respectively."

I wonder what good old Mitch--who received the lion's share of the FTX money--is going to do with it.
Of course, you skipped right over the full details.

Jeff Bezos Washington Post is not a legitimate news.

Sam Bankman-Fried donated over $1,000,000,000 (that's a billion) to Democrats.

https://www.cryptopolitan.com/sbf-do...-to-elections/

He did not simply go to Corey Bookers campaign page and put in a donation. It happened all back-channel through political action committees.

https://time.com/6241262/sam-bankman...cal-donations/

Corey Booker was up there as one the larger recipients of the dark money. With that type of money being thrown around Booker easily received somewhere in the 8 digits, and was possibly Bookers his largest contributor.

After Murphy's gas stove and gas heat ban's go into effect, and you're forced to buy his electricity you could always go across state lines and pick up a new stove or heater.

I really can't see why anyone from either side of the political isle would support these plans if you live or visit the NJ shore.
How is a wind farm off the coast a bad thing? Its PSE&G and Orsted that are developing and paying for the wind farm, NJ has little involvement beyond collecting the "lease" of the land, which is 15 miles out in the ocean.

Similar off shore projects are going up in Maryland, Rhode Island, NY and CT, in addition to Europe.

This is nothing like any other project, this is a $2.25 trillion windmill farm to be the largest in the world. The windmills are roughly 8x the size the ones that you see on land. To put in comparison each one is larger than the eiffel tower but smaller than the empire state building. Just for note, I live 36 miles from New York and can see the empire state building.

The windmills are considered deathmills to birds, especially migratory birds up and the down the coast. Windmills also release vibrations and noises, that will effect marine life, along with the fishing industry significantly.

Windmills release something called infrasounds, which can travel miles, being studied which are now linked to depression, high blood pressure, sleeping disorders, headaches. (There is alot of data on this topic).

This is on top of the eyesore problems they will create up the coast.

If you want quality of life, care for the environment, the natural landscapes of the state, human health, animal life, marine life, you would not be in support of this project.

This is not a convincing argument at all.

Here's an obvious question, why put this project into play? Exactly 100 miles from NJ into Pennsylvania is the 2nd largest natural gas reserve in the country. Enough natural, clean energy that could supply NJ for 1,000 years.

Natural gas is not clean energy. Better than oil, but certainly not clean. You fail to understand that supply is not a problem, the combustion and carbon emission is. If you don't understand that already, no amount of debate will help convince you.
