Enjoy your higher energy prices, America.
Never be friends with an Odumbo voter.
I'm sure 0 would like to be able to levy taxes, but sadly for him Congress must approve them.
Not happening...
May !?
LOL
He will and can do it thru EPA presidential fiat. Congress not needed.
That would require majority of the House to vote for it. Not Gonna Happen.
And so it begins.....
There was an earlier effort to open a carbon exchange trading center in Chicago, as part of a longer-termed plan to move the financial exchanges out of New York City and into Chicago.
It fell through when the carbon exchanges in the EU and elsewhere went belly up.
I’ll bet the Chicago Mafia will now revive that move, and we may see Wall Street shut down and moved to the Loop.
Unless he calls this “tax” something else...like a “required fee” or “regulatory reform cost” and have it administered by Lisa Jackson at the EPA.
If Goldman Sachs has anything to say about it, it will happen.
Just so everyone knows: The Carbon tax will tax business.
Business will pass that cost on to consumers.
Obama could just save time and trouble if he just taxed us to begin with because we are the ones who will be paying it.
Plus the Bush tax cuts that won’t be renewed, plus higher health care costs, plus the higher cost of Medicaid.plus anything else they can think of. Believe me Democrats can think of a lot of things.
He can always get Justice Roberts to help him with that.
Think in terms of 1600.00 per month heating and cooling bill for a 1600 sqft home. That is what we are looking at.
