How many CA companies are looking at this idiocy and saying, “That’s it, we’re outta here”?

NormsRevenge"When they “buy” this “nothing”, who gets the money?"

Part goes to those who set it up.

Which is why Mr. RomneyCARE supports this 100%.

Like the DNC, he has already invested in it, with his partner Soros.

It is doubtful that it can be stopped, even though a hoax.

California will open North America's first full-scale carbon market, in which companies buy and sell the right to emit greenhouse gases from their factories, power plants and oil refineries.

We have been overrun by madmen, it's the only explanation.

The far left doesn't care if it's a hoax. I find their indifference amazing.

I have, through judicious dietary habits, managed to keep my cholesterol level extremely low. If anyone would like to go out tonight and enjoy a steak dinner, I will be more than happy to sell you some cholesterol credits. Cash only.

well then WHATS THIS?

DIDN'T THIS THING DIE 2 YRS AGO?

'Death to the Chicago Climate Exchange ($7.40 to a nickel per CO2 ton, the market has spoken) By William Griesinger www.masterresource.org November 18, 2010' “One of the keystones of the Climate Change alarmist movement was its audacious attempt to create a functioning market by monetizing the atmospheric gas known as CO2…. Certainly, gaming the system has always been at the top on the agenda of the new green eco-trader.” - Patrick Henningsen, “The Great Collapse of the Chicago Climate Exchange,” 21st Century Wire, August 28, 2010. We were tipped off by the August 28th headline, “The Great Collapse of the Chicago Climate Exchange,” by Patrick Henningsen, editor of 21st Century Wire. And now it is official as reported by Chicago Business, Fox News , and Crain’s Chicago Business (sub. required): the Chicago Climate Exchange (CCX) is dead. Trading in carbon-dioxide (CO2) emission contracts at CCX has basically ceased with member emissions-reduction agreements expiring at the end of the year.

The idea is that by assigning a monetary value to the cost of polluting the air, individuals and companies would be encouraged to develop and fund cleaner alternatives or simply pass along the cost to their consumers. There, I fixed it.
