Where oh where is America going?

Skeet, You understand "cap and trade" very well. My son works for a large electrical producing company and says, " We will do whatever we have to with the realization we are a public utility and are guaranteed a 10% profit. The additional costs we bear will be passed on to the consumer with an increase in profit for the company." That couldn't be much plainer. We are going to get the big screw while a few companies (Goldman Sachs, etc) will be the big winners; and they don't pay taxes in the US. But you do undrstand the mess we will be in.

A very good friend said right after the "erection", "I fear the communists have won."

Right now, the Democrats are "punishing" Arizona because Senator jon Kyl is fighting the the cap and trade BS, the confirmation of that racist hag Sotomayor and bucking Obama the Usurper at every turn. The nasty letters condemning him from the liberals here in Tucson are flooding the local paper.
At least one politician does get it, although i'm sure the libs will kick him out come the next 'erection." Ain't that what you call it when they fix an election?
Paul B. as hell.

There is only one thing the companies don't realize though..the profit margin for them will come down also.. Check into the cap in trade mess. I think you'll find that the profit margin is addressed..or was supposed to be so. They were talking about a 3% max margin of profit.. So the companies are going to lose out too. And then there are the NIMBYs. There are going to be no new coal fired power plants no more refineries(hasn't been a new one of them since 75)and they are going to really hit on the coal mining companies too. All sorts of unsafe things happening there ya know..and as far as Nukes..uh-uhhh. One of them ain't gonna happen..the greenies are in power there too....Oh and then the NIMBys are not gonna allow wind generation...too ugly. unless they could cover the whole state of South Dakota or something..but that won't work either.. Might be time to take out the powers that be and teach 'em a lesson. 'Member when your father took ya out behind the barn and gave ya what for?? Sadly I think the powers that be would not heed a good lesson. They be IN CHARGE!! and the common citizen is dirt under their feet
