TAX and RATION

The cap-and-trade tax proposed by Reps. Henry Waxman (D–CA) and Edward Markey (D–MA) is disguised as environmental legislation when it would have little impact on global temperatures. In fact, it is a massive energy tax that promises soaring household energy bills, major job losses, income cuts, and a sharp left turn toward big government.

If any readers have moderates in their congressional district, now is the time to make your opinions about the AGW TAX and RATION hoax known. A simple line like ‘do you think we are this stupid’ sometimes does the trick.

May I suggest that you send your congressional representative this story with a request to read it on the floor. And while you are at it, the EPA shenanigans and my surfacestations report.

HealthCare Infomercial Summary

The one thing to ask your Congresscritter — Are you going to opt out of the public plan that you will vote on? Jive talk is an art form. Two things came out of last night’s stupidity:

1. Kill old people, save costs.

2. Sorry about telling you you can keep your doctor, you will be issued a government cost benefit analysis bureaucrat instead.

Government healthcare, the next AGW hoax. But you probably already figured that out, didn’t you?

Watch the movie “Soylent Green” for the details of how it all works out for you. The trailer is here.

Another good movie from times gone by “1984“, watch the trailer. I you see Obama and the Democrats in the film, it’s purely accidental, I assure you.

Australia Giving Up On Climate Change Hoax

Our friends down under seem to be getting cold feet:

Climate scheme Bill put off

THE chance of an early election based on climate change appears to have faded for the time being after the Senate delayed a vote on emissions trading.

In the last week of Parliament before the long winter break, senators voted to consider other Bills ahead of the emissions trading scheme legislation.

That means a vote on emissions trading is unlikely this week.

It probably will not take place until August, which would kill off the chances of the Government getting the first stage of a double dissolution election trigger before the break.

In order to get a double dissolution trigger, the Government must fail to pass the same Bill twice, with a gap of three months between the two votes.

As the truth spreads, good to see some aren’t buying this load of crap.

BTW: Did you know the same actors were the perps behind the ice age hoax of the late 70s? Yep sure were. We were supposed to coat the polar ice with carbon black made from ground up old tires, to stop the coming ice age. Seems the climate isn’t the only thing that is cyclical. Yes, it’s the same Dr Hansen.

Warren Buffett: US Economy In Shambles– No Signs of Recovery

CNBC reported:

In a live interview on CNBC underway now, Warren Buffett says there has been little progress over the past few months in the “economic war” being fought by the country. “We haven’t got the economy moving yet.”

While the economy is a “shambles” and likely to stay that way for some time, he remains optimistic there will eventually be a recovery over a period of years.

Buffett says the nation should concentrate on creating jobs.

Thanks Barry, glad the emergency  porkulus waste of money was passed to hold the unemployment under 8% which is now at 9.4% which means …

Interviewed today on CNBC (transcript), Mr. Buffett responded to a question about cap-and-trade by saying that regulated utilities would pass the costs on to customers, effectively resulting in a carbon tax.

“In the utility business, it’s going to be borne by customers. And it’s a tax like anything else,” he said.

Mr. Buffett, the chief executive of the conglomerate holding company Berkshire Hathaway, also said that the “tax is probably going to be pretty regressive,” and that public utility commissions in various states would determine “what customers it gets passed through to.”

While cap-and-trade legislation has not been enacted in the United States, as Mr. Buffett noted, projected revenues from the system are built into President Obama’s budget, which was unveiled last month.

How’s that hopey changey working out for you Obama voters.

Here is the video:

Durable Goods Up ?

While everyone is focusing on health care, the gigantic energy tax is coming this Friday, as the House prepares to vote. On what, no one seems quite sure as the final bill voted out of committee has been scrapped and anew much bigger bill has been submitted.

The House votes on this corruption laced TAX INCREASE bill, full of payoffs and backroom deals, in order the tax the life out of the American economy.

The Giagantic Energy Tax Is A Coming

TAX AND RATION — I wonder if any of the Obama voter morons are left there saying Obama says that 95% will get a tax cut. Well eat this … Heritage Foundation says that:

How Big Is the Tax?

The Heritage Foundation’s Center for Data Analysis (CDA) found that, after adjusting for inflation, the government would collect $5.7 trillion in tax revenue between 2012 and 2035. CDA’s economic analysis found that, by 2035, the Waxman-Markey cap-and-trade legislation would also:

• Raise electricity rates 90 percent after adjusting for inflation;
• Raise inflation-adjusted gasoline prices by 58 percent;
• Raise residential natural gas prices by 55 percent; and
• Raise an average family’s annual energy bill by $1,241.[2]

But the $1,241 annual energy bill is just the direct increase in energy prices that consumers face. As energy prices increase, the cost of making products becomes more expensive. Businesses will pass the higher costs of operating onto the consumer, which will be reflected in the higher prices Americans pay for products.

Add to this that the likely job loss will likely be about 2.5 million additional.

And so how much of a lowering of temperature per trillion dollars does that work out to Mr Congressman? You do know, don’t you?

CO2, plant food, runs the earth’s carbon cycle of life. Without atmospheric CO2 all life on earth will die.

Calling Out The Liars

So what do you call a government that lies in order to have a basis for massive tax increases? Ignorant people.

Are you dumber than the post, or the hole. Choose one.

Watchy Out For People Who Say “I Won”

Stimulus Bill Finally Kicks In

Glock 2009 sales rise 36% over 2008:

With the 2009 fiscal year in the books, handgun manufacturer GLOCK, Inc. has announced a 36% increase in pistol sales over 2008 sales. Coming off of five consecutive years of sustained growth, the company that focuses exclusively on semi-automatic handguns for Commercial, Law Enforcement and Federal/Military sales is preparing for another strong year in FY 2010.

At least some industries are doing well.

Ozone And Environmental Foibles

Remember CFCs? They were replaced with HFCs. The experts said that CFCs were destroying the ozone hole. And now:

An international team of scientific researchers has warned that hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) gases – used increasingly in insulation foam, air-conditioning and refrigeration – present a significant threat to global efforts to stabilize climate change, in a move welcomed today by the head of the United Nations Environment Programme.

At the time, the Swiss brought up this exact same concern, but CFCs and ozone were the in thing, and now the money is in the global warming hoax. And HCFCs are becoming the problem, experts say. Did anyone stop and think, maybe the experts are what they seem?

Sort of sounds like the new soon to be mandatory mercury filled CFLs. Where do we get these brainiacs.

A scientific paper published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) highlights the need for urgent action over the HFC group of greenhouse gases, arguing that their use could climb sharply as replacements for gases being phased out to protect the ozone layer, such as chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs).

The funny part is the sun’s UV-A and UV-B create and destroy ozone, and as the sun continues to slumber, that fact is becoming clearer by the day.
