Cap & Trade, "Killing the Economy"

The House passed Cap + Trade. Shame on them! Now we must look to the Senate for some sanity. It is obvious that this bill will devastate the economy and deepen and lengthen the recession. It will cause increased unemployment and send more jobs overseas.

We are hurting out here! Why would any legislator vote for Cap + Trade??

Only four possibilities occur to me.

1/ They actually seek to further damage the economy, which would allow them to further extend governmental controls under the guise of crisis.

2/ They can not or will not oppose party leaders or policies.

3/ They are overly influenced by environmental lobbyists.

4/ They actually believe this legislation will help the environment even though facts show it will have little effect. We could drive Fred Flintstone cars and use candle light and it would only lower the carbon level in one hundred years by a fraction of one percent. We would be destroying ourselves for naught.

If we do not help ourselves, we can not help the world. Help us regain our economic strength.


Signed,
The Electorate
