Cap and Trade: Who Is Getting Rich From This Fallacy


Yesterday it was called Global Warming, today it is called Climate Change; but whatever you call it, it is a false emergency based on flawed science, questionable tactics, and devoid of integrity. And what would be the proper response to the pressure groups that are promoting this chimera? Why cap and trade, of course!

Cap and trade is a government run ponzi scheme that will cost Americans jobs, take money out of the pockets of all Americans (in effect, a tax in the form of higher energy cost), and line the pockets of the very “advocates” promoting this facade:

10 Questions for Al Gore

The patron saint of the green movement, Al Gore, had an estimated wealth of 2 million dollars in 2000. Today he is worth 100’s of millions of dollars, and not one Democratic the House panel is concerned about a conflict of interest? Gore is green alright……….with money he has made from this “crisis.” But Gore is not alone. GE (the parent company of MSNBC and NBC), which has been heavily promoting both Obama and Cap and Trade, stands to make billions. yet the media is just skipping along to this madness.

The only thing that stands between this folly and common sense are the American people and a few conservative representatives.
