The House passed its climate change bill Friday, a landmark piece of legislation that will reduce industrial emissions by 83 percent by 2050, but critics are calling it the biggest job-killing bill in the history of Congress. Carol Browner, assistant to President Obama for energy and climate change, discusses the bill.
Notice she says C&T will "Create the demand" for wind & solar. That doesn't sound like free market capitalism to me - C&T is pure Keynesian Economics - based on the management of demand, not on consumer choice or preferences. Oh, wait - I forgot... Carol Browner is card carrying member of Socialists International - so she's NOT a fan of Capitalism

Lampdim, if you went to science class, you would know that scientific inquiry is not a club where information contrary to the club's creed is disallowed.
You have something that bears a closer resemblance to religion, i.e. State Worship.

This is the kind of shit that makes Squawk Box SUCK! It's ratings barely beat "Life According to Jim" re-runs.
These talking-head retards wouldn't know a fact if it crawled up their ass.

None of you retards went to science class did you? By the way, the only place you'll read that belief in global warming is waining is in the bowels of the conservative propoganda machine. Read the science for yourself, don't let Michelle Malkin, or Rush Limbaugh think for you.

One other thing, the other nations of the world are no longer interested in crashing their economies in the name of the GW scam. India said they are not going to change their ways, Czech Republic calls GW a scam, the French are not going to join in and New Zealand last year suspended their cap and trade program. The belief in GW is going down with the global temperatures. A scam can only last for so long.

Jobs bill my ass. Cap and tax will raise the cost of energy through the roof. Even Obama said your electric bill will skyrocket. So if cost of producing goes up, and the cost of transportation goes up and basically everything in sight goes up, then buisnesses will cut back. You dont raise the cost of living to create jobs. If green jobs are so good then where the hell are they now? This Obama logic is stupid.

The only jobs that will be killed are the ones which should have been eliminated upwards of 60 years ago. We don't have qualms about putting Chinese foot-binders out of business... This is REALLY not much different considering that perfectly clean decentralized unlimited electrical power alternatives have existed for nearly 100 years.
This is a VERY good bill.
