If Global Warming is as Dire as They Say, Why Is Cap and Trade Being Put off Three Years After They Pass It?

If the Democrats are so sure cap and trade will save the planet then why doesn’t the regulations take effect until 2012? Isn’t our planet important enough to start this program as soon as the Senate passes the bill? Surely the Democrats aren’t haven’t put this off this bill to save Barack Obama’s reelection chances, have they?

If you want to know the reality of this bill, the magic number in figuring out this isn’t good for our country is to look at the year the bill is finally implemented. We are told constantly from politicians with an environmental agenda that the time is now. If the time is now, they why put it off three years? If they force Americans to follow this bill in 2009 or 2010, Obama has no chance of being elected. Why?

Because the bill is going to drive up energy costs. Electricity cost will rise up to 90%. Gasoline costs will rise 58%. This is all going to trickle down as it costs more to run the big machines farmers use to harvest corn, soy beans, and other crops. This obviously is going to drive up food costs. If the Democrats allowed this to happen before 2012, they destroy Obama’s chances of reelection.

Once again, we see the green movement isn’t about saving the earth. It’s about taxes, and cap and trade is one of the largest tax increases in American history, and it will finish destroying the economy, but let’s put it on hold for a few years so we can get Barack reelected. If the earth is in such dire consequences, why are we putting it off three years? This shouldn’t be too hard to figure out.
