Let's assume for a moment that the left is correct about climate change and we need to do something right now. Do you really think Cap and Trade is the answer? If so, somebody's asking the wrong question.

No. Cap and trade is not the right answer. It's just another opportunity for Wall Street to create a profitable bubble. The right answer would be an outright tax on carbon.

Carbon is the base for all life. You want to tax it?

Of course she does. She is a moron just like the rest of them. And before you start your lecture on tone, if it looks like a lump of shit, don't expect me to call it a rose.
Too many halfwits in this country and they should no more be allowed near a polling booth than they would be allowed to assume control of the cockpit of an F-22.

After the "tone" I've been getting from the left lately, there won't be any more lectures.

Reductio ad absurdum. If you don't understand the difference between carbon that has been sequestered for a millenium and the daily poop and eat cycle then you have some reading to do. Somehow I think you know that.

I know that "Carbon" is not the alleged problem, "Carbon Dioxide" is. I sure as hell don't care about your daily poop and eat cycle. :doh:
