I don't know what this means. The more I read it the more insane it is and the less sense this makes.

What the hell is going on?!? Like facilities? Like bases? Are we taking facilities off the normal power grid and building coal fired power plants? Are we going to have members of the military working in coal fired power plants shoveling coal?

None of this makes sense.
