While perusing one of the many trade magazines of the industry, I ran across this little jewel. Normally the Waste & Recycling News is pretty one-way on the side of the enviros. I applaud their fairness in printing anothers opinion.
Report: Cap-and-trade legislation could result in job loss
April 29 -- Greenhouse gas cap-and-trade legislation such as that proposed by the Obama administration and under discussion in the House could result in the loss of more than 3 million jobs by 2030, according to a recently released report.
In addition, the legislation could cost the average household $2,100 annually, according to the report compiled on behalf of the Coalition for Affordable American Energy, which receives funding from more than 180 business groups.
The findings are in contrast to a recent EPA estimate that climate legislation could cost each household between $98 and $140 per year.
We have seen the jobs run away from the Obama administration. I'm sure that he thinks that the greenie jobs he intends on creating will eventually make up for the losses. I'm afraid he's mistaken. Whatever jobs he creates in the government sector will have to be paid by the folks in the private sector. The green jobs that are created depend on the ability of the folks to participate in the green fraud.
I say again that while I do support recycling, voluntary waste stream control, and laws and controls against anybody intentionally harming the environment. When the whackos start saying that cows farting and fat people being another cause of global warming they just make udder idiots of themselves. When their outspoken God, Prince algore lives in a mansion that will house twenty families and uses enough energy for that twenty families per year! That proves to me that he doesn't even believe it himself. When the great Messiah Obama jets around like a high school kid joyriding 'cept his joyriding costs about $100k per hour and spews tonnes of the carbon the enviro-freaks hate.
I think I'll never really take global warming seriously. That, of course is the mantra of the lefty.

Algore is a piece of work, isn't he? He's on the tv again, still trying to get people to believe the nonsense he spews.
I don't mind voluntary recycling, though I've read that most recycled products actually cost more to manufacture than products made from materials found in nature. The difference is made up by government subsidy.
Burning trash for power generation makes a lot more sense to me.
Cap-n-trade will result in wholesale production loss, private sector job loss and will exacerbate the depression.
Save your Confederate money, boys: it might soon be worth more than federal reserve notes!
