Trump Taxpayer-Funded Coal and Nuclear Bailout Decried as 'Breathtaking Abuse of Authority'

("The Trump administration is trying, once again, to fleece ratepayers by giving coal and nuclear power plants billions of dollars in guaranteed profits," he added, calling the new proposal an "absurd" abuse of authority.)

What the am I missing here!?! PROFITS!?! As a citizen of Ohio I'm constantly battered with MSM talk about how we need to provide funding for an over aged nuclear system that has over the years been financially, BROKE! Our coal energy plants and nuclear plants are constantly complaining about needed upgrades and being, BROKE! While my bill keeps going, UP! Did I misunderstand the meaning of, profit, during my time of schooling? Feel free to enlighten me, anyone. Profit now means handing our tax dollars over to over paid CEO's and their failing deteriorating energy plants? What's always the first thing to come after plundering society of their tax dollars? God dam bonuses! Fucking please! John Trump, remember that name. I've been watching the History Channels newest show on Tesla. It's quite interesting and I suggest trying to catch up on it. It starts out with his death at the New Yorker, supposedly 80 trunks of files and documents, only like 60 have been accounted for. Within coming episodes a John Trump makes an appearance to the show. I'll leave the rest as not to spoil. I have to wonder if we wouldn't be living an entire different way of life on this planet if it wasn't for all the shenanigans of our government and corporate class brought onto Tesla during his days.
