Eastern Railroad Discussion > A potential silver lining for coal

Government study suggests natural gas exports would, overall, have more economic benefit to America compared to restricting them.

Likely to raise natural gas prices long term but it would also fuel increased NG production preventing prices from increasing too quickly. Utility companies (and chemical companies) will take note of this.

And the Sierra Club will not be happy...

The Sierra club is never happy when it comes to prosperity, jobs, cheap energy etc...
It's amazing that they are continually allowed to spew such babble without any evidence or documented proof.

Which, some might say, would be the news of all.
