As with many of these posts.  The basic words are only the beginning but they are enlightening.  Cap and Trade is not about the environment (not to Dingell) it is about Revenue.    I will say for All Gore it seems to be more about the environment.    And since he believes in this Carbon credits crap, I will at least give him credit for being honest.  Even honest enough to mention his “world view” of taxation.

For the other side of this discussion… the Heritage Foundation has published a simple read about Cap and Trade.    What I find most interesting is that both sides agree… that the American people to not understand that it is A TAX and a GREAT BIG TAX.

Now you do.
