Hold on to your CAPS

My advice for this post is that you hold on to your CAPS. Yep, look it up. Your CAP is going to be taxed. Well not exactly your cap, but if you exhale too much you'll be taxed. Think I'm kidding? Here's a quote from an article at "http://www.spectrum.ieee.org/apr09/8348" "In his address to the U.S. Congress in February, Obama called on lawmakers “to send me legislation that places a market-based cap on carbon pollution ..."

Carbon based pollution is what you exhale every time you breathe! Those who love our Mother the earth truly and deeply believe this. Sure they're talking about factories or energy producers, but they're also talking about you and me.

When our newly elected 'savior of the world' was on the campaign trail he said this "You know, when I was asked earlier about the issue of coal, uh, you know — Under my plan of a cap and trade system, electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket. Even regardless of what I say about whether coal is good or bad. Because I’m capping greenhouse gases, coal power plants, you know, natural gas, you name it — whatever the plants were, whatever the industry was, uh, they would have to retrofit their operations. That will cost money. They will pass that money on to consumers."

While the focus in this quote is on the raising of your taxes (without calling it a tax), you must read a little deeper. He said "...natural gas, you name it.." Alright, let's name it. Carbon dioxide. You put too much into the atmosphere and you get taxed.

It appears to be a stretch doesn't it? But think about all those people in years gone by who didn't believe people like the Wright brothers, or that we could put a man on the moon. It sounds far fetched when I say it too, but it's really right around the corner - or right out your nostrils to be accurate.
