Way to go Gore! Cap n Trade Pt.1

Why do we keep passing legislation without knowing what it is? Empty promises flood the media! This Cap and Trade bill will create millions of green jobs. Well, I read a study from a European country who have this scam that said: Every new "green" job created we lose 2 ½ old jobs. One step forward and two steps back may be a great dance step but it is not progress!

Way to go Gore! You have started the wildfire and your stupidity is emptying our pockets! Due to your exhaustive effort to spread fear and outright unfounded lies, our income will be depleted with inflated energy costs. (But hey, at least it's not a tax increase, right? That was dripping sarcasm.) Why do I connect Gore with the energy bill called Cap and Trade? Global warming is the shaky foundation built on shifting beach-sand that has started the need for an energy tax. Wake up, folks and understand this...According to credible scientists and anyone with the common sense God gave them, the Earth has been through numerous ice ages and between each ice age there was a warming period. It is a cycle. While it is true that we humans can help slow down this process and be more responsible, mere mortals will not alter the natural order of things! However, mere mortals have always had fantasies of fear to spread in order to make a buck. If you can convince the public that a hole in the ground will protect you from dying in a nuclear attack, then you could make a pretty penny off the neighbors who will pay for a hole in their backyard, complete with 3 rooms, a state of the art kitchen and food storage, a surround sound system with satellite TV and a hot-tub! During the 1970's, many of the same 'experts' that were claiming that we were headed into another ice age, are now warning of global warming.

In the 1970's Senator Gaylord Nelson said, "The world has been chilling sharply for about twenty years. If present trends continue, the world will be about four degrees colder for the global mean temperature in 1990, but eleven degrees colder in the year 2000. This is about twice what it would take to put us into an ice age." If the senator was correct we would, at this very moment be in the mist of an ice age. And I'm sure that Obama could sell you a load of ice cubes too.

There is no credible scientific evidence that carbon dioxide from humans is causing global warming. New Zealand's Climate Science Coalition chair Bryan Leyland said, "... to my knowledge, carbon trading is the only commodity trading where it is impossible to establish with reasonable accuracy how much is being bought and sold, where the commodity that is traded is invisible and can perform no useful purpose for the purchaser, and where both parties benefit if the quantities traded have been exaggerated. ... It is, therefore, an open invitation to fraud and that is exactly what is happening all over the world."

With that in mind, why is Obama pushing this cap n trade? My thought is that he needs to rush everything through while his approval ratings are still high. He knows that once everyone wises up, he won't be able to do anything. Or perhaps He knows that once government obtains absolute control over our energy costs, it will give them unprecedented power over the people. Every aspect of your life will be controlled directly or indirectly by politicians, ie. The supreme ruler, Herr Obama!
