Cap & Trade comes down to legalized theft by the administrations cronies of the private citizen and private and public corporations in which they will pick winners and losers.
As we are all learning and some have known forever is that the Sun has the most impact on our Earthly environment and water the next most important, Co2 has very little impact and a good case can be made that we need more Co2 not less.
Since the industrial revolution began we have slowly learned that it is not wise to contaminate or pollute and it just makes sense to preserve and improve rather then use up and destroy. We get better at improving our environment all the time and it would have happened without the government being involved at all, in fact government involvement has made such improvements costlier then they should have been and probably has slowed the entire process down.
Obama uses the “we must get over our dependence of foreign oil” excuse because it’s true (and more important than we think because we are funding those who seek our destruction) and this truth provides the wheat with which to make the rat poison palatable to most Americans that believe in this truth. The author correctly states that Obama’s cap & trade plan will not change our dependence on foreign oil, and also will most likely cause an increase in the price of oil and therefore help our enemies kill us faster.
Whatever happened to “drill baby drill”?
