Ok, this new "Cap and Trade" legislation has either: just went off the deep end, or found a way to get money for every pet project ever imagined.
A key component of this legislation, that the purveyors of this bill want to do, is tax the release of CO2 into the atmosphere.
Here's the problem (or their solution) who makes CO2? We do, and every other air-breathing animal on this planet. We will have to pay tax to breath? Hellooooo!
I want to say, "Where's my pitchfork," (but don't want to be labeled a right-wing extremist)...veteran, you know
So you want to have two or three kids, and you hope for a tax refund...ding, ding, ding, sorry Charlie, remember going for those bike rides on the boardwalk during your vacation? Yeah, well, you were breathing pretty hard, and as a result, were exhaling a serious amount of CO2. Yeah, that's right, you are contributing to global warming, so you will have to "Buy" some extra CO2 credits (from the non-breathers).
Yeah, and remember putting your kid on the soccer team? Yeah, he was out of shape and boy was he breathing. People were passing out because they couldn't get their ozone. Yeah, that's right. The CO2 your kid was putting out was above and beyond, you know, your cap. So fork it over, bub.
And I tell you, we don't even want you breathing around here, got it? Or guess who's gonna pay?
Yeah, folks, that's right, keep holding your breath.
