HOW DOES THIS HELP AMERICA OR AMERICANS. BY IMPOSING THESE CARBON EMISSION TAXES ON THE EVERYDAY AMERICANS ,(WHO BY THE WAY ARE STRUGGLING TO HEAT OR COOL THEIR HOME ANYWAY), HURTS THEM FINANCIALLY AND EMOTIONALLY. WHEN WE WANT TO STIMULATE THE ECONOMY AND BOOST MORALE . THIS IS A NEGATIVE IMPACT TO THOSE WHO ARE WORKING HOURLY AND SALARIED. LET THOSE WHO ARE MAKING THESE LAWS LIVE THREE MONTHS WITH MAKING ENDS MEET AND REALLY WORKING FOR A MINIMUM LIVING ( ABOVE NOT MINIMUM WAGE) STANDARD. WHO ARE THESE PEOPLE? NOT THE WORKING CLASS FOR SURE. LAWYERS MAKING LAWS FOR THE LAW ABIDING ARE MAKING THE LAW ABIDING PEOPLE HAVE TO BREAK THE LAW TO MAKE ENDS MEET. IT IS CRAZY TO PUT IT MILDLEY. WHILE THE INTENTION IS A GOOD ONE. THE ULTIMATE OUT COME IS GOING TO BE PEOPLE FREEZING TO DEATH LITERALLY AND DYING OF HEAT EXHAUSTION AND HEAT STROKE BECAUSE OF THE LAW. LAWS ARE MEANT TO PROTECT AND CREATE ORDER . BUT WITH THESE LAWS IT WILL ONLY BRING DESCENT AND DEMORALIZATION TO ORDINARILLY GOOD PEOPLE. IF YOU ARE A MILLIONAIRE THIS WILL NOT EFFECT YOU TREMENDOUSLY. IF YOU WORK FOR $15.00 AN HOUR YOU ARE GOING TO BE SO BROKE THAT YOU CANNOT FEED YOURSELF OR KEEP A ROOF OVER YOUR HEAD. PLEASE LET US THINK OF THE THE EVERYDAY AMERICAN. THE CLOCKER INS AND THE BE ON TIMERS. WHO LOOK FORWARD TO RETIREMENT FOR A REST NOT TO WEAR A BLANKET IN THE DEAD OF WINTER CAUSE THE HEAT IS SO LOW OR OFF BECAUSE THEY CANNOT AFFORD TO HEAT THE HOME. MOST PEOPLE TO NOT WANT GOVERMENT ASSISTANCE. AND THE GOVEREMENT REALLY DOES NOT WANT TO ASSIST. SO LETS WORK TO GET A REASONABLE SOLUTION TO THIS AND BE A PRODUCTIVE AMERICA AGAIN.
