Waxman Cuts Deal to Push Carbon Tax
From the Desk of: Steve Elliott, President, Grassfire.org Alliance
A "deal with the devil" is being cut right now in
Congress. Please see below. --Steve
The Carbon Tax (or National Energy Tax) is even worse than we imagined...
Henry Waxman is patting himself on the back because he has worked out a so-called "compromise" that "gives away" some of the CO2 allowances...
But it's a "deal with the devil"!
For example, the auto industry will be "given" CO2 allowances in exchange for producing "green" automobiles.
First of all, what right does the government have to take control over the air and then "give away" so-called "allowances" to manipulate our national economy?
Then to make matters worse, the government is simply using its expanded power for liberal social programming! They will use the Carbon Tax to reward "greenies" and punish those who do not play by the rules of the environmental extremists.
And YOU and I are going to pay -- $3,100 each and every year -- to fund their radical agenda! And if we don't play by the new "green" rules, we will be punished even more!
+ + Carbon Tax is "unilateral economic disarmament...
Rep. Joe Barton has called the Carbon Tax "unilateral economic disarmament of the U.S. economy," and he is right.
As I noted to you earlier, Obama and the Democrats are pushing to pass the Carbon Tax through the key House Energy And Commerce committee BEFORE Memorial Day.
+ + Help me short-circuit the fast-tracking of the Carbon Tax
I still need your help right now to short-circuit this latest effort to fast-track Obama's Big Government agenda.
Go here to schedule your faxes to key House members and
tell them you oppose the Obama/Waxman plan to
fast-track the Carbon Cap-and-Trade Tax:

Also, I have posted on my ResistNet blog a more detailed analysis of how this $2 trillion Carbon Tax will literally destroy our free market economy. And don't be fooled--Big Energy and Big Environment are already in bed with the government.

Again, Waxman wants to push the Carbon Tax Scheme before theAmerican people realize what is happening. The most crucial vote on the Carbon Tax cap-and-trade scheme may be taking place before Memorial Day...
Thank you for taking action!

P.S. The Democrats are already talking as if the "own" the air and can "give" it away! Don't be fooled -- this is about imposing a massive $2 trillion tax increase that will transform our economy and fund every pet liberal social program. Please schedule your faxes here:
