The government is going green with cap and trade legislation! Kinda...

Calculate your Cap and Trade tax burden! Visit the Tax Foundation website:
http://www.taxfoundation.org

LYRICS:

We're gonna...
Cap and trade
all carbon emissions
gonna cap and trade
that will be our mission

We're gonna cap and trade
see what I mean
the government is
going green today...
We cap and trade.

See cap and trade
charges folks for releasing carbon
like companies that use
vehicles that park and

utilities and factories
who pass the cost
to people who will pay
for cap and trade

It sounds like cap and trade
is a tax we pay then
No sir, cap and trade
is just a regulation

See tax is when there's
money spent
this is just a fee to the government
Okay?
It's cap and trade.

So with cap and trade
won't things be more expensive?
Well just...everything
but don't be so apprehensive

Just clothes and food
and heating bills
and anything that needs
to be shipped will
be raised
with cap and trade.

But how is cap and trade
not a tax there, sonny
when we all have to pay
the government our money

You don't seem to understand my friend
we're going green, doesn't that make sense?
they'll pay
for cap and trade.

Sounds like cap and trade
is some sort of weird humor
because these fees will just be
passed on to the consumer

Yes, but check this chart
you'll see for sure
the biggest burden will be
on the poor who'll pay
for cap and trade

See who cares if cost of most goods go higher?
And household income levels all go down?
and if estimated environmental impact is not really calculable,,,

Oh, what a scene, I'm really keen
the government is going green
We're going green
with cap and trade!

  • Cap and Trade is plan to tax the hell out of Americans. Created by the Global Warming hoax. Also if you pass this the effect on Industry in America will be destroyed. We need to replace the entire tax code with an 18% national sales tax. And instead the Democrats and obama only wish to make it more complex and hurt everyone.

  • yes, a little fact Obama lied to us about....I guess Joe was right.

  • Cap and Trade is going to line the crooks pockets, driving up costs for homeowners and businesses and the increase being passed onto customers. For allot of business's struggling to survive these costs could cause them to go bankrupt. More small business owners need to be aware of this scam.

  • @cpblackangel88 You said global warming is a hoax about a year ago. Do you still think so? (and do you mean you don't believe earth is warming, or you don't believe humans are having an impact)

  • Cap and Trade in the Senate now the American Power Act would increase taxes on the average household up to $3200 according to the RNC gas prices increase by $2.58 a gallon according to George C. Marshall Institute. With Obama demanding the cessation of offshore drilling gas prices are expected to increase yet another $5 a gallon, because we would grow dependent upon foreign nations we are not allies with in order to provide our oil. They would price gouge w/ gas prices increasing to $10/gal!

  • big oil news

    "The European Climate Exchange (ECX) was launched by CCX in 2005, and is now the leading exchange operating in the EU Emissions Trading Scheme. Since 2006, CCX and ECX have been owned by Climate Exchange PLC.

    More than 65 leading businesses, including global companies such as ABN AMRO, Barclays, BP, Calyon, E.ON UK, Fortis, Goldman Sachs, Morgan Stanley and Shell have signed up for membership to trade ECX products."

  • Search on "Obama Deception" on Youtube to see the real truth.

  • Spain is collapsing because of the "green movement" and is backing away from it. It doesn't work as mandated by government, in fact government has NEVER done ANYTHING right. Let the ingenuity of the free markets come up with the solutions and they will work, nobody will buy them until they do. This is unlike the crap we have now people only buy because of the government subsidies (wind mills, solar panels, please).
