Cap and Trade is how Al Gore manages to keep his house operating to suit his lifestyle while he stumps for a cleaner world.
This is totally stupid!
Like a dieter starving himself all week and then saying, “On the weekend calories don’t count.”

whattheheck, my friend, i agree it’s ‘totally stupid’, but not as an occasion to cast right wing dispersions on al gore. no, obama’s goldman sachs economic team is behind this ...
as matt taibbi points out in his piece in the rolling stone, “how goldman saches seized washington” :
“The new carbon-credit market is a virtual repeat of the commodities-market casino that’s been kind to Goldman, except it has one delicious new wrinkle: If the plan goes forward as expected, the rise in prices will be government-mandated. Goldman won’t even have to rig the game. It will be rigged in advance. “
so cap and trade default credit swaps and other new forms of derivatives to dodge any possible future regulation are the new hope for banksters. money for nothing and the complete dismantling and destruction of the means to create real wealth - that’s the way ...
woo hoo, prosperity for the same few continues. don’t hear many gop complaints either ... keep those campaign registers ringing ... serfdom for the working class is the new world order and it is just around the corner.
