Waxbag~Malarkey Carbon Cap Tax & Scam Ping ~ (POGW)

The recent decision by the House of Representatives to administer a cap-and-trade tax on carbon emissions is an example of an ill conceived and poorly thought out bill from the house. First of all, before even getting into the policy of it all, it is inconceivable to me that a group of people can justifiably understand and make decisions on a fifteen hundred-page document in only a few days. Under a cap-and-trade system, government sets a cap on the total amount of carbon that can be emitted nationally; companies then buy or sell permits to emit CO2. The cap gets cranked down over time to reduce total carbon emissions.
As great as this may sound in terms of an environmental standpoint in reducing green house gases, the economy will be the brunt of the tax. Cost estimates are as unreliable for climate legislation as they are for models predicting climate change. But, what is for sure about cap-and-trade is that this will be the biggest tax increase in history. This is a regressive tax that touches every family in the country after the fact that businesses will be forced to pay for their carbon outputs. This means a tax on something that has always been free and just adds another cost to calculate into the production of products we use every day. Does this sound like something we need in a time of economic crisis?

Especially if the 1500 page document is based on politically driven junk science.
That didn’t stop my congressman, Ike Skelton of Missouri. This old fool who has never in his life worked for anything but a government paycheck, wrote that he was “protecting farmers from the EPA,” or some such.
To me Cap-and-Trade looks like a suicide pact. why anyone would destroy our economy and give up US sovereignty for essentially no gain is beyond my ability to comprehend. I know why “they” want it, I can’t comprehend why we go along with it.
I think the Senate will kill this abomination.
But, but, but the Gorecle cannot be mistaken
Did you see that picture they have crap spewing out of his mouth omg I laughed so hard a thousand words!
That was gross - lol
A reverse colon-cleans commercial.
Those “Carbon Credits” will become the most sought after and expensive items on the trading floor. Any business man wanting to expand his product line will have to bid for credits to do so on the open market. He will be bidding against the largest corporations in the world who will naturally be able to pay more. The price of the credits and hence the price of everything will skyrocket. Its a beautiful scheme to create a monopoly environment for certain businesses and make a ton of money for the brokers who handle the contracts. Guess who will pay??? Madoff was an amateur compared to these hucksters.
