An Ol' Broad's Ramblings
Crap and Tax
Seems Sen. Inhofe made a few comments this morning concerning the Crap and Tax bill Congress is trying to foist on us, along with ObamaCare. Here are a few highlights I thought worthy of sharing:
In sum, after a slew of hearings and three unsuccessful votes on the Senate floor, the Democrats taught us that cap-and-trade is a great big tax that will raise electricity prices on consumers, enrich Wall Street traders, and send jobs to China and India-all without any impact on global temperature.
And….
So be assured of this: We will markup legislation in this committee, pass it, and then it will be combined with other bills from other committees. And we will have a debate on the Senate floor.
Throughout the debate on cap-and-trade, we will be there to say that:
According to the American Farm Bureau, the vast majority of agriculture groups oppose it;
According to GAO, it will send our jobs to China and India;
According to the National Black Chamber of Commerce, it will destroy over 2 million jobs;
According to EPA and EIA, it will not reduce our dependence on foreign oil;
According to EPA, it will do nothing to reduce global temperature;
And when all is said and done, the American people will reject it and we will defeat it.
So let me ask the question: If even the Dhimmicrats KNOW it’s a useless piece of legislation, why continue the push? Well, one answer might be…..POWER! Power and CONTROL! And with power, comes lots and lots of money. You see, there will be some big Dhimmi names *cough* Boracle *cough* who will be making a FORTUNE from these kinds of bills. It’s not about ‘saving the planet’, or the hoax of ‘man made global warming’. It’s about MONEY! Plain and simple!
I just read up on Senator Inhofe, and I like him!
We need more people like him in Congress.
Which, of course, makes him a target for the moonbat brigade. sigh….
