all the time. That is what you get from Dems, unless they want their MASSIVE GLOBAL WARMING TAX to remain stealthy. Funny they never support stealth for the miliary.

By the way, no one is inspecting my house without a warrant.

is a hoax? Oh yeah, I forgot. Being a democrat means never having to say you are sorry… or that you are wrong. But they are. This is such a joke it is totally embarrassing. And it is equally embarrassing to see how many otherwise intelligent people have bought into this myth. But apparently that number is declining. Rapidly.

How will they do that when people get electric bills that are double & triple what they have been paying?

Every electric company will have to hire more customer service people to handle the calls. If I owned an electric company I would be running full page newspaper ads and change the splash page on my website that would say this:

Hello Electric Customer,

By now you have received you first bill after the GLOBAL WARMING TAX has been imposed. Our company must now buy Carbon Credits at tremendous cost. If you would like to learn more about why your electric rates are now through the roof contact your congressman or Senator and they can explain it to you.

If your congressman or Senator voted for this MASSIVE GLOBAL WARMING TAX then please let them know how you feel on election day.

…since both sides agree that Cap-and-Trade promises to affect global average temperature by exactly zero degrees.

This bill is all pain, no gain.

There is nothing preventing utilities from putting this on their bills themselves. Congress just voted not to mandate it. Cowards. Disgusting.

All taxes should be in big red ink on every bill, especially your gasoline purchase receipt. A separate line item in big red ink telling you how much tax you paid, not a little sticker on the pump per gallon.

I have piece of property with a vacant home I am eventually tearing down to build. Electric, gas, water are disconnected but I get a $50/month water bill from city. I call about it and tell them I am disconnected and vacant. They said it doesn’t matter, its a minimum charge. LOL

…that Holy Grail of taxers – a tax on breathing.

Branding will come later in the extermination camps when they decide to reduce population in order to reduce humanity’s CO2 footprint.

What I want to know is, if this increased cost is in fact going to be a reality, why electric companies are not NOW printing messages on customers’ bills to this effect. Why are they not taking the initiative of telling customers to call Congress?

For that reason alone, I think they deserve as much blame as Congress for any increased cost resulting from such a policy. It makes them complicit, and I suspect their lack of action would make some question the credibility of those predicting such drastic rate hikes.

If it happens, we’re going to have problems when large numbers of people start dying from heat exhaustion and frigid cold. In the few isolated incidents we see every year, legislatures have before not thought twice about taking action on behalf of people who could not afford air conditioning. What will they do when it is no longer just a few isolated cases? What happens when people can no longer operate refrigerators and ovens and then die of either malnutrition or food poisoning? Even grocery stores and restaurants won’t be able to operate and keep their prices reasonable enough to stay in business.

If these cost projections are true, then I don’t think people will accept it. Once it happens, I don’t think they will be willing to wait on the legal or political procedural processes. Unfortunately, we are going to have to get to that point first given public awareness and likely skepticism.
