Cap and trade is just another way to expand a commodities market, that will no doubt be unregulated until it is too late. They tried this in Florida--go ahead and develop huge communities in the water table, but you have to buy credits from the folks that do not develop obstructions, like imperviable concrete and roof tops in the water table. Or you could buy up those credits from the local ranch, park, etc. and sell them on the market to the developers. Correct me if I am wrong, but this means our major corporations can spew pollution all they want, as long as they hold enough "credits" purchased from small companies that have no or minimal pollution or environmental impact. When you put Monsanto or other major corporations into the mix, they will be able to afford to keep polluting as long as they can afford credits. Guess what, everything a consumer pays for anything will be more expensive, after all, the end consumer will be stuck with every bill.

Exactly!

Correct again!

So there we have it...huge corporations get bigger, small companies go under because they sell off the carbon credits rather than expanding their business (and thus their need for additional credits), and the consumer pays for the entire transition to a completely corporatized supply system.

What happens after that, government takeover of the corporations, or is it the other way around?

Saddest of all the environment will not be impacted in any positive way as a result of the Cap and Trade policy. It indeed is all a scam!

Is this where we should discuss wind? One of the drawbacks to total wind power for electricity is that if there is no wind, no electricity gets produced. So far, as I understand it, they don't have batteries to store the generated electricty. Where are we headed with all of this? And a local businessman told me that the taxes he was going to have to pay next year on his company are going to quadruple next year. This is without the cap and trade being in effect yet.
