FYI - In Regard to H.R. 2454 (Cap & Trade Bill)
As an FYI follow-up, I usually check out e-mail chain letters before posting them on my website. According to Snopes this rumor is False about the H.R. 2454 requirements to force every homeowner to be inspected and upgrade to sell their home.
BUT, needless to say, the outrageous increase of the amount of Federal Bureaucracy this bill, (NOW LAW) creates is astounding. We The People do not need more government intrusion into every aspect of our lives. This bill is another step in the wrong direction. As with all government mandated programs the funding necessary to create a whole new bureaucracy and over see this program is staggering. We do not need to be taxing more and spending more. The goals to reduce "global warming" is laudable in principal but untenable when the entire globe is reeling near financial collapse.This issue will become a mute point should that occur and as the days march by the more likely that appears to become reality.
I tend to agree with the John Birch Society's piece JBS Freedom in that we do not need more government.
We all want some government but not too much government. I remember a time in my short lifetime when the idea of such government intrusion into our lives was unheard of. The creeping incremental intrusion of government regulations and taxes has grown into a monster out of control and people are not even aware of it as they go about their daily lives.
No doubt there is some good in every program as the intent is to do the most good for the greatest number of people but it has now become a rabid monkey out of control stealing the very food out of our mouths.
People need to wake up! There is more than one way to accomplish the reductions of energy burdens in a free economy where financial incentives will encourage the majority toward efficient energy use. Beating a dog with a stick may work in the short term but will not change the dog's mind to obey when the stick isn't around.
This a still circulating e-mail alert that people need to be aware of:

If you own your home you are well advised to check this out - at the end
of this email is the link to verify and watch. If the country thinks the housing market is depressed now, wait until everyone sees this - no one will be buying (or selling) homes in the future....... .....We encourage you to read the provisions of The Cap and Trade Bill that has passed the House of Representatives and being considered by the Senate... This Congress and whoever on their staffs that write this junk are truly out to destroy the middle class of the USA .... A License required for your house.... no Longer just for cars and mobile homes.... Thinking about selling your house? Take a look at H.R. 2454 (Cap and trade bill) This is unbelievable! Here is the link to the US House of Representatives C-SPAN video
of Rep. John Boehner (R) from Ohio blasting Rep. Waxman, (D) from California for what this bill will mean to the PEOPLE of AMERICA , especially home and business owners, which by the way, includes all of us one way or another. People need to get their head out of the sand, before it is too late, if it isn't already. This was voted on June 26, 2009. How much of this has been reported by our media? |
