Are there any progressive (liberal) lurkers out there, who can explain to me the benefits of the Cap and Trade policy, not democrat talking points, but actual benefits? Ive read all I can, and I'll be damned if I can see any real benefit....except more taz dollars in the govt till.....tha tis if there is anyone left to tax:)

That would be more "talking points" I'm afraid? There is no proven benefit and a lot or government regulation, and wasted taxpayer's money spent on placating progressive enviro whackos in the Democratic party.
Total lies. Obama says minimal cost; but others say close to $3,000 per household. All this to control "GLOBAL WARMING" which they want to relabel as climate control of greenhouse gasses. It isn't settled science by a long shot but it's the same as with bailouts. Act now, before it's too late, or in this case, before everybody figures out what a farce it actually is.
These people are control freaks of the worst kind, and with that loony Al Franken in the Senate today, they have a filibuster proof Senate.
That should keep everybody awake at night because it is truly scary.
Good hunting. LB

Although I am not a progressive liberal nor a democrat I do profess to be a lurker. I have no explanation for Cap&Trade other than it will put us more under the thumb of the federal government and make us more dependent upon them. I do question why hasn't the local power people (SSVEC & APC) spoken out against this bill. Likewise with the Obamacare - why hasn't the medical profession stepped up to the plate?

50 miles southwest sounds like (what?) Mexico? If not, darn close.

Damn near spitting distance. About a 5 or 10 minute drive and I'll be in Mexico.
