"..and cash dividends - to the American people... "

Where is my $2500 for 2018?

[dartuser]

Who is this? Goebells father?

Congress should approve legislation to place a meaningful fee on carbon-dioxide emissions that rips off the American citizens so we can pocket a cut.

[nopardons]

How much money would Trent, the MORON, make, should his idiotic "plan" be used?

Who is paying him to write this garbage now?

Hr very much needs to just shut up and slither away!

[cgbg]

Trent Lott—that Trent Lott?

Say it ain’t so!

The “climate change” Borg assimilated Trent?

[FreeperCell]

Like a telemarketer who never gives up.

[Zathras]

Trent Lott...it figures

[Paladin2]

"This is the only realistic, workable path..."

totally unworkable.

[colorado tanker]

Who knew that raising taxes could miraculously lower planet-wide temperatures? Now, that’s “science”!

[Responsibility2nd]

As former leaders of our parties ....

That’s right. Start off with a joke.

Former idiots of our parties is more like it.

[rigelkentaurus]

Since people are CO2 emitters, isn’t this just a version of the old illegal poll tax? Also, shouldn’t a huge person pay more than a little person. What if a person cannot pay their poll tax, I mean CO2 tax - do they get the solvent green treatment?

And what a racket this would be! All that money circulating through the government, wonder what percent is going to be “siphoned off” - both legally and illegally (you know, poor sloppy accounting that the government excels at where vast sums of money just disappear).

All in the name of a leftist anti-science hoax.

[alternatives?]

How much oil could be produced from these two old dinosaurs?

[CodeToad]

I say we kill a liberal every time one of them claims humans are killing the planet until the liberals think we’ve killed enough of them to stop this global warming fantasy.

I bet it stops real quick if they had to put their lives where their mouths are.

[freedumb2003]

>>Congress should approve legislation to place a meaningful fee on carbon-dioxide emissions that ripples through all sectors of our economy,<<

No.

[central_va]

The premise here is that limiting CO₂ is a good thing or that man caused "global warming" is real. So it is a tome built on a lie and BS.

[RatRipper]

To Trent Lott: Go back to oblivion where you belong, you washed up RINO worm.

"John Berlinger Breaux (/ˈbroʊ/; born March 1, 1944) was a member of the United States Senate from Louisiana from 1987 until 2005. He was also a member of the US House of Representatives from 1972 to 1987. He was considered one of the more conservative national legislators from the Democratic Party. "

[Reeses]

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.

[Major Matt Mason]

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.

[outofsalt]

I say, make it $400 a month for news print and ink!
