What's in the Waxman-Markey Bill?

And how will this bill affect you? It has regulations on every single aspect of your daily life. There are light bulb restrictions (no more than 60 watts in your candelabra); in fact there's a whole section that deals with lamps. If you decide to build a new home, it must meet new and specific energy requirements. If you decide to sell your existing home, a federal inspector must inspect your home, determine it's energy rating, and if your home is found to be unacceptable then you must retrofit and make changes before you will be able to sell. it.

Well then, I guess it's a good thing that I bought my house with the primary thought "this is where I'm gonna die."

NOT ONE GODDAM FEDERAL, STATE or LOCAL employee is going to enter my house without a warrant. Along with the list of 'staples' that I now regularly buy (ammo,spam, chili, ammo and more ammo) I guess I'm gonna have to add goddam light bulbs now, too. Wait, I guess they're gonna go after the goddam Charmin next and make everyone wipe their rears with recycled MSM newspaper or some shit......gotta buy the Charmin, too I guess....

From yesterday’s Glenn Beck Show:

“...The bill doles out almost a trillion dollars worth of grants (aka “bribes”) with the government acting as middleman between citizens and businesses...”

With video of the show, worth a watch if missed:

Glenn Beck for President in 2012! :-)

Bookmarking.
THIS is the thread I wanted to see. Bullet points for all of the things that will affect us in easy to read terms. THAT’S what’ll get people to finally understand.

Print these and put them on stickers and cards and put ‘em everywhere!
