David from TexasI provided Obama this same information when he asked people to provide him questions when he had the first e-town hall, but it was not supportive of cap & trade so it never came up. This tax and trade bill is not an energy bill. It’s a tax surcharge like Carter’s Windfall Profits Bill that collected hundreds of billions of dollars from the E&P sector and God knows where it was spent.
Farmer from TexasGlobal Climate Change is going to be really bad for farmers. Droughts, pests, reduced effectiveness of herbicides and pesticides with additional CO2 in the atmosphere, longer yet less productive growing seasons, increased severity and frequency storm events including tornadoes, hail and hurricanes, and smaller livestock. Massive food shortages are predicted to result from global climate change.
Sam from TexasGreat rally!! I became more aware of what is happening in Washington and with the current legislation. The speakers spoke from the heart and I liked the support of public citizens.
James from TexasIncrease the cost of energy and the cost of everything will be higher, disposable income will decrease, and the US standard of living will suffer.
