return the revenues it generates to the American people in the form of cash dividends

As a rule of thumb Fedzilla takes a 50% cut of any money that passes through its hands. The dividend won't come close to covering the higher fuel and electricity prices people will have to pay. And unlike free market investors Fedzilla converts 100% of its revenues into carbon emissions. CO2 will actually increase.

So, the globalists are using two former senators from the South to try to sell this carbon tax scam, as if that somehow makes it more palatable. I honestly thought Lott had died, but it was just his supposed belief in limited government that disappeared.

Europe has FAILED to meet the simpleset goal of reducing Carbon emissions...yet the United States has lower its rate without government mandates or taxes.

Take that fact and smoke it, Socialists!

I'm going to assume that's a joke. Goebbels would never admit to Jewish ancestors, and Karl Marx's father was a rabbi.

No, I really didn't know who that was a picture of.

Don’t worry about where it comes from. It’s free money!

Well, maybe not. Your power bill, gasoline, and every product that uses fossil fuels to produce or transport will also go up.

Trent Lott, referred to as a Leader? That's the silliest thing I've read online in months.

Lott’s body apparently is still alive, but his brain has died.
