The Supreme Court killed a potentially enormous global-warming lawsuit against the nation's five largest electric power companies, ruling Monday that the regulation of greenhouse gases is entrusted to Congress and the Environmental Protection Agency.
The 8-0 decision is a setback for environmentalists who hoped the lawsuit would spur action to limit carbon pollution from coal-fired power plants.
Eight states, including California, New York and Connecticut, joined environmentalists in launching the lawsuit.........The other states that backed the original suit were Iowa, New Jersey, Rhode Island, Vermont and Wisconsin.
These states with maybe the exception of Iowa and Wisconsin all have electric rates well above the national average. I'd also be willing to bet they are net importers from other states.

Iowa cranks out the windpower. Go up towards Mason City and they are everywhere.
Nice way to paint a huge group of people based upon a small subset of them.
That was a very predictable ruling, im curious why they spent the money to take it that far.
