We all knew that Cap and Trade, the carbon tax scheme that will be the largest ripoff of the American public since we became a free nation, would have
some behind the scenes shenanigans pushing it forward. And we begin to discover who the corporate players are:
thecommonconservative.com...
Under the Obama plan, the “cap and trade” credits will be issued to all producers of energy. GE is the largest manufacturer of wind turbines
as well as other electical generation turbines used in coal, gas, atomic, and hydroelectic electricity generation facilities. With the Obama plan,
those cap and trade credits would be issued by the Federal Government, and ultimately, traded just like any stock or bond. GE has apparently, created
and entire unit with the Corporation that would deal in the Secondary Market trading these credits. First, they are going to take in billions of
dollars from government contracts in wind energy. Second, they perhaps are going to have exclusive control over the secondary market for these cap and
trade credits. That, in effect, puts GE in the catbirds seat for all energy produced in this nation as ALL “carbon emission” energy sourced are
going to be subject to these carbon schemes. This includes ANY oil related, natural gas related, gasoline, diesel, and any other manufacturer that
uses any petro-based component. That means every single plastic container, every car, every chemical fertilizer, every pesticide, every single thing
you use will be subject to this scheme as it too, is made from a carbon based material.
Read it and weep... and realize why GE pushed so hard to get Obama elected....
