Well thats not a whole lot of money for a millionaire like Obama. But it is going to sting me quite a bit. It is going to nuke those who are now either out of work or under employed thanks to Obamas economic miracle. /sarc So Obama is attempting to enact an inverse progressive tax that is barely noticeable to the Obama, Oprah, and Soros, but which hammers the families of average Joe America.

Don’t worry, the amounts will be rebated at the lower end of the scale. So, a previously well-off family will pay its own share plus the share of one or two other families.

In other words, if you are poor, you’ll get an environmental rebate of about $1500 to $2000; if you were somewhat better off, you’ll pay $4000 to $5000.

Its yet another arm of the redistribution octopus.

We wish it were only that much. Millions more jobs will be lost to Cap and Trade as companies will be leaving America. Companies that produce food products will be gone.

Another “giant sucking sound of jobs leaving the US”, as Ross Perot would say.

They’re lying - electric rates will double over a couple of years as utilities move to natural gas for generation. And, as a bonus, the price of residential natural gas will rise as well as demand rises against supply.

If the government is involved multiply the cost by a factor of 3 to 8 times.

Yeah, and Boston’s Big Dig was only going to cost $2.5 billion. (Up around $22 billion in actual costs now).

Why anyone would take this administration’s numbers seriously is a great mystery. We don’t need numbers from a guy who most likely cannot even read a balance sheet, and who talks about profit/earnings ratios.

But...but...Democrats in Congress told me it would be no more than a “postage stamp a day.”

They wouldn’t lie, owuld they? Or were they talking about a $5 postage stamp?

Too bad the MSM won’t be reporting this though the word will still get out. I would like to see those House Democrats who voted for cap and tax now explain to their constituents how burdening them with the equivalent of a 15% tax hike is such a good thing.

Liars.

The cascading ripples from higher energy costs will ensure far more than a couple of thou per fam per year.
