A comprehensive national program that provides funding for research and the incentives necessary to reach our goal of energy independence would create new, green jobs and help put the brakes on climate change, but the Republican Party’s determination to block the establishment of any kind of cap-and-trade system aimed at reducing carbon production means that strong, national market incentives for innovation and large-scale investment in alternative energy remain elusive.
Disrupting the Borg is expensive and time consuming!

Energy independence is a worthy goal, but a cap and trade system within the framework of a basically unregulated commodity exchange is nothing but a legal filching operation where insiders rig the system to get filthy rich at the expense of everyone else.
Apparently carbon taxes will also stop floods in Australia:

..and of course because we didn’t have carbon taxes in Australia back in 1893, that caused flooding then, too.
lol, so we’re back to taxing ourselves wealthy. That’s always the answer of the loony left……… and it never works. Stand in the bucket and pull it up.
Basing energy “independence” on what we now know as “alternative energy” sources (wind, solar, bio-fuels) and so called “conservation of resources” (forced austerity, artificial scarcity) is pure folly and dangerously so.
Carbon taxes . . . are the key to creating money laundering systems . . . . unless you want to apportion them. Then you have the problem of people ‘virtually’ cloning themselves . . . (double portions)
Adam Smith: all wealth come from land, labor and capital, and all capital comes from land and labor FIRST. Even in a hunter/gatherer society . . . .
I happen to agree with that principle of reality. . .
Wonderful use of a great figure and his work………. any basic knowledge of economics would show that the carbon schemes can’t work and would be detrimental to economic activity.
