Dead on Arrival? S. 2191

June 6, 2008

The “Climate Security Act” is up for a vote in the United States Senate today. My sources tell me that it is all but dead on arrival at the Senate floor, but not quite. This bill, epitomizes the sheer lunacy that has befallen so many in the world. My friend calls people that support things like this “watermelons.” As in green on the outside, and red on the inside. I will continue to refer to them as neo-communist. Unless I have one to many a pint of plain. 😀

The facts in this matter are clear enough for even those legally blind to see. This is what S. 2191 would actually do to you, me, and the generations that follow.

Just what would this abomination do?

  1. Place caps on CO2 emissions.
  2. Sell permits to by-pass those caps.
  3. Create a market so that business’s could trade or sell those permits.
  4. Use the funds generated by the sale of said permits to fund more research that would spread this new religion even more insidiously.

Then those things would have the immediate effect of:

  1. Raising the cost of heating or cooling your home, business, and the schools. Don’t think that the cost gasoline will not be affected, it will, and in a big way.
  2. Give politicos more methods of destroying the free market, advance their crony’s, and eliminate those that refuse to kneel to them.
  3. Create an even bigger boondoggle of research, by researchers that don’t know how to research despite all the fancy letters following their names.
