    In his speech to Congress Tuesday night, President Barack Obama “committed himself to the largest annual tax increase in the history of America,” warns a Republican congressman.

    The implementation of a cap-and-trade system, something Obama favors, would raise $300- to $330-billion a year, said Sen. Jim Inhofe (R-Okla.).

    “As bad as the stimulus spending bill was, this would be much worse because instead of being one-time spending, the cap-and-trade tax increase would keep occurring year after year,” Inhofe said.

    In his speech to Congress, Obama mentioned cap-and-trade indirectly, asking Congress “to send me legislation that places a market-based cap on carbon pollution and drives the production of more renewable energy in America.”

    During his presidential campaign, however, Obama was more specific. He called for an economy-wide cap-and-trade program to reduce greenhouse gas emissions 80 percent below 1990 levels by 2050.

      Oh, Barack isn’t trying to work towards a carbon tax, he’s trying to HELP US! The unwashed mas… I mean, smart, kind public knows that carbon is an EVIL, DEADLY POLLUTANT that needs to be banished from the planet. Our savior will get rid of the insidious 6th element and save us all!

It just never ends, day after day more evil news, more taxes, less freedoms, more beatings by the Nazis, more tazering, more cops shooting americans, more troops in the U.S., more theft of american money by the “government”, more partying by the banksters with our money, money that was stolen from us in the first place………I have to stop cause my blood pressure is going off the chart….next Obama will send me a bill for getting my BP elevated, on top of my exhale tax. Hey Obama, how much are you going to charge me to take a piss? How much to take a big dump? What if I have diarrhea? Is there a fart tax in the works? If I fart while masterbating is it double the tax? FVCK OFF!

      GENESIS Chpt 6 is the best keep secret by the satanic illuminati,for satan and his fallen angels came down to earth and mix with God creation,they were giants and very evil, so evil that GOD caused the flood to destroy all of them.These satanic people,eleites who are satanic,you know the kingpens at the top of the illuminati pryramid.Its a long story but the beleifs of these giants are what all the secret societies beleive in SATAN.Satan has lots of names by secret societies,sun god,appolo,dog god dagon and etc.Satan and his demons most likly do travel in ufo s,and that will be the big special deception of the end times when antichrist or satan show up in the heavens in a giant ufo,even christians will fall for it,95 percent of the world will for it.No tinfoil hat here folks,its in the BIBLE,but ya gotta beleive and ya gotta look for the truth in the bible.

      I say we get all the traitors that sold out our republic, and send them to an offshore torture camp and put their video’s on youtube. You know the ones…Rockefeller, Bush’s, Cheney, Kissinger, Rumsfeld (aka aspertame), the rest of the scum at the FED, and many, many more. I mean obama thinks torture is okay…that might backfire on him when the masses turn on him and come to the realization of the agenda that’s being pushed forth by the scumbags that back him. Our forefathers wouldn’t have allowed these bastards to get away with what they have done to this world.

      “…cap-and-trade tax increase would keep occurring year after year…”

      Considering that it’s a tax on the AIR we BREATHE, regardless of whether its a car, an animal, or a HUMAN that emits CO2 in the process of burning energy, they are LITERALLY GOING TO CHOKE US TO DEATH with this tax!!!!!!!!!

    34. Maxstein SS Says:

      another f---ing scam for more tax like carbon is cause by the gov that aproves the pollution , most of it comes from the dam factorys like god dam Monsanto get ride biochemical places like monsanto GMO and other factorys and whe will not have have this problem, i god dam hate politicians they are f---ing dumb all of them thinking about money well money is useless if you dont have a world to spend it in ?

    35. F U Says:

      Yep, we are going to get the shaft with no bottom. I suspect they will need to tax the hell out of countries that have volcanoes for they produce more carbon than all of man could ever produce. If the world would only wake up to who really controls the world the sooner we can bring it back to the control of the people. Hint, it isn’t Obama.

    36. Frank Says:

      Just think 300-330 billion that the companies pass down to us and then it looks like we get to pay about $1,000-$1,500 every year as it increases. Sounds stupid to me and anyone that will agree to pass such a thing is stupid. People are already moving to renewable why tax whoever is left?

    37. LuckyOne Says:

      Funny how politicians can get carbon DIoxide mixed up with carbon MONoxide. The CO (carbon monoxide) is a problem, but not CO2 (carbon dioxide). Even still, not a good idea. How many here have items made from plastic? That’s taxed. Drive a car? Taxed. Use electricity? Taxed.

      Don’t give them ideas about the toliet. I don’t want to pay a guy right after I get off the pot.

      And what of people with pets?

      Zammy Reply:

      CO2 was never considered a problem as long as there was REAL pollution of poisonous gases occuring from factories, cars, power plants… Now however, all factories have measures reducing poison gases (like CO) so the “green” proponents have a little problem: They can’t accuse a car driver anymore of polluting, when he already has a $500 platinum catalytic converter in his car along with oxygen sensors and fuel efficiency, fuel blends, etc. all to reduce poisonous gases. So what are the “green” men doing now?, after all, they just dont want you to drive a car, and they just dont want to allow industry to grow? What in heavens name could they do against a car that emits as much toxics in a month as is in a small cup of gasoline poured into the grass? They HAD TO come up with a NEW JUSTIFICATION FOR THEIR TRUE GOAL, WHICH IS DE-INDUSTRIALIZATION and DE-POPULATION. And these GENIUSES (you have to leave it to them ,it is amazing) are now coming up with the idea that what’s NON-POISONOUS exhaust is ALSO harmful to the environment (to be exact: minute temperature changes) so UNLESS you produce a car that emits ZERO EMISSIONS, NOT EVEN CO2 OR OXYGEN, which is IMPOSSIBLE TO DO, SINCE NOT EVEN HUMANS CAN LIVE WITHOUT EMITTING CO2, unless you accomplish the impossible, you’ll be axed.
