Who comes up with this stuff? If the plants close, the (energy) prices will rise. The likelihood of opening another nuclear plant in New York is slim to none — if Spitzer wants to choke Wall Street again (as if his crazy lawsuits didn’t do enough damage) then go ahead. Everyone will move to other states, the world will realize that in this global, electronic economy that you don’t need a physical presense in New York and this house of cards will begin to collapse. Way to Go, Spitz.

Gov Spitzer Plan To Force Power Plants To Buy "Credits" For Emitting CO2

Why power plants? Co2 provides the fizz to beer and soda, so why not force breweries and bottling plants to buy credits, too? Matter o' fact, why not pass a tax on the establishments that serve those items. Matter o' fact, why not also tax the consumer, too?

P.S., if Spitzer is reading this, it's sarcasm. Don't actually do this.

Article doesn’t say who gets the money for these credits but let me guess ... This is just a convenient way to raise taxes.

Folks the customers of the utilities are going to have to pay for it one way or another. Thus their rates will go up. Thus it amounts to a tax.
