Try 30%, and falling. Natural gas is the current fossil fuel of choice. But hey, don't let facts get in the way of a political agenda.

My point is that renewable resources account for only a small percentage (13%), yet Obama and this Paris deal wants the US citizens to fork out the money to FORCE it as a mainstream energy source, while the CEO's of these companies get rich, and other countries get built on OUR backs. How about I elect out of it, and you pay for MY share since you seem to like it so much? I'll take the free ride all day just like the rest of the world.

No, I chastised him for using an image without checking the source. Critical thinking... use it.
You must be one of those anti-facts guys who hates Wikipedia and Snopes because "they're tools of the liberal elite". These source exist so that when people say ridiculous things like "85% to 90%" of our power comes from coal, we can look up the actual number. You have a credible source that says 85-90%?My point is that renewable resources account for only a small percentage (13%), yet Obama and this Paris deal wants the US citizens to fork out the money to FORCE it as a mainstream energy source, while the CEO's of these companies get rich, and other countries get built on OUR backs. How about I elect out of it, and you pay for MY share since you seem to like it so much? I'll take the free ride all day just like the rest of the world.
According to https://www.eia.gov/electricity/monthly/, it's 14.3% and growing at a rate faster than overall generation (2.79% vs. 2.53%). Subsidies? Like the ones I've been paying to the fossil fuels industries since the 80's? You wanna talk about rich CEO's? The richest work in the fossil fuels industries... http://oilprice.com/Energy/Energy-Ge...-Gas-CEOs.html
