Government Verses the People
Speaker Pelosi and her band of anti-capitalist freeloaders literally passed Cap & Trade in the dark of the night. The legislation was being written during the vote. Not one single member of the House of Representatives had read the thirteen hundred (plus) completed pages.
A few months ago this same group of miscreants voted for over one trillion dollars of spending to keep unemployment below 8%, without reading the bill. A handful of Republican Senators pushed this legislation into the win column.
The majority of Americans now realize that there was no correlation between the levels of employment and the government takeover of the financial institutions and the auto industry. In retrospect, it was a government power grab. Need evidence? The Treasury just announced that any knowledge of the administration and dissemination of this money is off limits to the public.
This didn’t stop seven Republican dwarfs from voting with the majority of Democrats for Cap & Trade. You can bet your last dollar that it benefited their standing with the bureaucrats, unions, environmental liars, welfare parasites, campaign contributors, and a few select corporations (i.e., GE, Johnson & Johnson, John Deere, etc.) that have been promised a direct pipeline to the US Treasury.
Eighty-five percent of the carbon taxes will go directly to corporations. And you will appreciate this. A Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac clone will oversee the fund’s dispersion.
The world’s leading experts have repeatedly stated that controlling carbon emissions will have zero impact on the health of the environment. They have presented a preponderance of evidence that disproves the relationship between carbon emissions and global warming.
It’s public knowledge that the EPA hid documentation that mirrored this conclusion. And for the record, all vegetation on this planet requires carbon to survive. No carbon means no trees, no crops, and no life on land or in the sea.
A few years ago Germany introduced similar restrictions on carbon emissions. It is now gutting the legislation which only served to cripple its economy. The tax burden suffocated its ability to compete in the world market and reduced the standard of living of its citizens. And it didn’t reduce carbon emissions.
Be afraid. If the Senate passes this legislation, the door is opened for government to determine the amount of energy a family can use. If a household exceeds its allotted ration, the overage will be billed at exponential rates.
Mr. Obama and Pelosi’s bill also gives the federal government the right to enter private homes and audit their energy efficiency. Unless a home is in compliance with the government’s definition of energy efficiency it can’t be sold. How many millions of older homes will be abandoned; how many neighborhoods destroyed?
No energy supplier will be required to reduce its carbon generation. But that is not the point of the legislation. It is intended to place every aspect of energy under federal control.
Pelosi’s estimate that the average family will only see a $15/month increase in its energy bills is pure fiction. Non-partisan experts predict Cap & Trade will raise electric bills between 80% and 90%.
And the cost of everyday goods, like food and clothing purchased by families, will rise between 20% and 30%. To survive, America’s manufacturers will move offshore, which will send unemployment in the private sector beyond comprehension.
In truth, Obama and Pelosi have all but bankrupted the United States in their quest to control the financial institutions. Now they want absolute control of energy and healthcare, and they are willing to destroy our standard of living to accomplish this objective.
This aggression is not about Republicans verses Democrats. It’s about Government verses the People. Congress and Obama must be stopped!
