Forward!

American Thinker;

Next month, if all goes according to plan, the Environmental Protection Agency will launch the most serious assault on American business since the 1970’s. New regulatiosn governing the release of Carbon Dioxide will hit every corner of the economy, causing your electric bill to skyrocket (as promised by candidate Obama) and adding billions in costs to manufacturers and other businesses that generate CO2.

  1. More proof that the EPA hates people, especially free people. There corrected it for you.

  2. Wanna induce knee-slapping laughter in a REGULATOR?
    Explain the economic impact of a new rule especially one that any reasonable person would see as inapplicable to your organization, which makes it way funnier.

  3. Soak the Rich, unless they’re a Democrat! Justify it as saving the earth. Where’s the UN Climate fest this year? Bali? Seychelles? Tonga?

  4. Yeah well, this seems political suicide if folks are intelligent enough to realize they will be freezing in the dark. The midterm may occur before cold weather but 2016 is another matter.
    Regardless the midterms come January this could be a Fort Sumpter….
    I hear this…..

  5. Allowing turdo 2.0 to wield the levers of power would be no different. His advisor Buthead Butz is/ was the CEO for the WWF and as such is an environmentally challenged communist.

  6. Hmm! Higher energy costs in the USA. Does that mean all those manufacturers abandoning Ontario will rethink that strategy? Does Wynnie jump on this ‘faint hope’? What to do, what to do?

  7. “Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools.” Rom 1:22
    That sort of sums it up rather nicely.

  8. The EPA is the biggest factor in making economic recovery of the nation next to impossible. No country can compete in a industrial environment without cheap abundant electricity and the EPA prides itself in their ability to make life hell for anything that can provide a decent living. A massive bureaucracy that is totally brainwashed by a simpleton like Al Gore and a discredited IPCC is very dangerous when a POTUS is dumb enough to consider CO2 a pollutant and ignores all evidence that is contrary to any global warming or even a non existent rise in the Ocean level. China and India etc. must truly love that community organizer that makes Jimmy Carter look so brilliant. By the time Obama leaves office the destruction will be so complete that any chance of recovery will be minimal. The EPA can take much of the credit for that.

  9. Hey now, I can’t vote in american elections but I sure expect my electricity bill to jump in florida because of this. Right now with WRC I pay 2.3c/KwH, in Ontario where I can vote and don’t vote liberal(thanks big cities, for dumping on us rural areas), I’m paying 8.2c/KwH.

  10. It’s a thinly disguised surtax on energy use with no hope of remedy and no accountability – revenues will be consumed by the vast monopoly of government – absolutely no value for tax dollar – a total naked theft.
    Our parents would not have stood for it and our grand parents would already be in civil revolt.

  11. Hey, knuckle-dragging neanderthals – why don’t you deny science some more as you slobber, drip and drool and destroy the planet for money as your oil company masters write your talking points for you — you pack of cretinous, treasonous creeps?

  12. Love you too joe, now go back and play with the other children and leave the adults alone.

  13. The article ends with these words;
    “… In short, the rationale for burdening Americans with these new regs is non existent…. ”
    well…Obama hates America and hates that it is so powerful, so everything Obama does has a specific goal; to make the USA weaker.
    All previous President wanted a stronger better USA, Obama wants a smaller weaker USA.
    He hates that the USA has the largest economy in history of the world, the same way he hates it that whites have the best civilization in the history of the world.
    Obama believes it is unfair that the USA and white people have so much success and so much abundance.
    Everything Obama does hurts the USA and white people.
    When Obama returned Churchill’s bust to England he set the tone for the next 8 years.

  14. Canadian Friend, you are a stupid ignorant racist.
    Peterj — Bite me.

  15. Bite me ? Is that your best shot ? Disappointing as I thought you might want to check your white privilege and learn or debate something. Little things like the computer you’re using wouldn’t exist without oil, nor your cell phone ,or plastics or any of the other 6000 things made from oil. Should change your handle too. Better suited would be joe Green or even joe Liberal or NDP. You’re much too young for joe conservative.Do your parents even know you’re still up at this late hour ? Anyway joe, it’s always nice to talk to children before they face the hard reality that pixie dust and global warming are a myth. If you had done your homework you would already know that. Just don’t feel too bad as Obama never does his homework either and you are no more brainwashed than he is.

  16. “why don’t you deny science some more”
    I’ll tell you some science. People vote their wallets.
    The American people have been hit very hard in their wallets since Obama got his second term.
    Now you can give people food stamps and welfare but when costs go up, when the discretionary cash they have shrinks, they will be looking for a culprit and they will vote their wallets.
    Yes it’s true the American people have been voting for pie-in-the-sky socialist Utopian B.S. and thinking they can be self-righteously proud of socialist morals(ignoring the immorality of redistribution of the fruits of other’s labor) but people only live with the morals that they can afford and they will vote their wallets first, morals be damned, when they can’t afford those old socialist morals any more.
    That’s political science. Politics is the Art of Getting What You Want and you can’t get what you want when you’re paying too much to keep the CO2 Boogie Man away.

  17. In the old days, when guys like jc were in their Mommy’s basement with a playboy magazine instead of a computer, at least they were getting a bit of exercise.

  18. Joe c displays the reason why we are being preyed upon by the crony capitalist energy cartels he professes to hate so severely. Low info voters (LIVs – yep that’s you joe) open us to the naked klepto-demand cycles we see in the calculated plunder of turning a beneficial gas (CO2 is plant food joe, look it up) into a toxin, while at the same time turning a blind eye to government crony corporations which still spew particulate toxins into the environment.
    Joe, you realize all humans produce (exhale) CO2 in the course of living and that now makes YOU a problem under the perversity of hard science the CO2 pogrom represents – will they simply tax you for breathing out this new toxin or will they decree you an environmental bio-hazard and ask you to report to the nearest government carbon foot print “neutralizer”? This is big militarized government you deal with here joe, they are just reactionary brute force, and once set in motion on a pogrom they are impossible to stop before they have taken a toll of victims and economic destruction. This is the historic record of oligarchies on a pogrom joe.
    The transnational energy cartels see most western governments are net debtors so they can buy influence with any government they wish now. CO2 is their latest con where they encourage governments to destroy energy competition so their monopolies and cartels can ravage the economically captive population in demand economics price gouging – this is the con behind carbon taxing and green energy – it is an energy use surcharge imposed to create false shortage and demand higher prices of consumers – THE HARDER REGULATORS MAKE IT TO USE ENERGY AND DELIVER ENERGY TO THE END USER (YET THE DEMAND IS GROWING) THE MORE THEY CAN CHARGE FOR THE ENERGY – notice the feds do NOT go after oil producers – just users, why is that joe? Because taxing consumer use and restricting delivery is the same as restricting supply and in supply side economics that makes the (abundant) extracted energy supply more valuable – oil use has not decreased joe, and it won’t until Mr. Spock gives us his dilithium crystals to replace it, until then you ARE dependent on petro-based energy – got it joe?
    Huge foreign energy producing cartels and commodity speculation cartels benefit from taxing energy use – yet mouth-breathing, self-destructive brain-dead Hydrocephalic zombies like you joe, will drink the Kleptocrat Kool aid fed to you by corporate crony media and take to the streets screaming for more energy use pillage and demanding the jackbooted tyranny needed to enforce the fascist economics the crony corporatocrcy wants.
    To put CO2 outlawing into terms you are more familiar with, what happened to the price of pot (a useful, harmless common plant that grows over 75% of the earth’s surface) after government turned it into an evil “narcotic” regulated substance? – who benefited Joe? Cartels who supply the demand and the pols hose palms they grease to do business, just like Capone and the Chicago Dems. – so it is when coroporatocracies essentially outlaw carbon based fuels. Qui bono Joe?
    Get off the bong joe, and start learning exactly who governments work for – it isn’t you

  19. Occam, don’t waste your time on Joe. He has his Revealed Truth, and that’s all there is to it. Of course, Joe is a hypocrite as well. If he truly wanted to eliminate all his personal CO2 emissions, there’s any number of sure and certain solutions to do that permanently. And once he did, we’d all be much better off, presumably including Joe.


  20. What Science is that Joe..Kindly spell it out to us Neanderthals…Would that be the science of manipulating data.? would that be the science of conspiring with your fellow “conspirators” to fake data.? would that be the science of misinformation regarding Polar Bear populations that are in FACT Growing…as opposed to declining…yea, we know ALL About your so called Science. We call it blatant Misinformation/Disinformation – Propaganda …. BULL$HIT in short.
    You talk of of Science Joe, yet you know jack $hit about it.
    Treasonous..?? Hardly, but it is in fact persons such as yourself that would sell out humanity in the name of “Sustainability”..ie; the UN’s Total Socialist AGENDA 21.
    USEFUL IDIOT is what
    you are Joe….read some Marx and you will understand the term. Useful idiots are those that would oppose Pipelines and Oil Sands Projects and Fracking to free up tight oil.. in the name of Environmentalism. And why are you a useful idiot in pursuit of these activities..?? Because the only ones that will benefit from your idiotic actions are the very Oil Producing nations of the planet that don’t put up with your brand of BS (OPEC)….Not the Environment because it was NEVER ABOUT the environment. (who do you think funds all these NGO’s and Environmental attack dogs.?? (look no further than Saudi, Iraq, Iran, Venezuala etc)…it is they that will in fact BENEFIT should you and the rest of the useful idiots prevail.
    The oil will flow Joe…for a very long time to come.
    You are also one of these fools that believes in fairy tales such as Wind / Solar Power.
    See Spain as to how well that worked for them.
    See Ontario as to how well that worked for them.
    And best of all see Germany (who are right now building some 25 COAL POWERED Plants to replace Perfectly good Nuclear Reactors..?? DUH), how well that will work out.
    Joe you simply don’t know nadda…
    And so Joe, in an effort to enlighten you, I might suggest reading on “Thorium Molten Salt Reactors”
    if not….? Take the Red pill Joe and save the world your “EXHALANT”
    Cheers from a SAGD site.

  21. joe conservative,
    So that is what was wrong with me? all those years of therapy and no one could help me!
    But you joe, you – single handedly – you have CURED me with 3 little magical words!!!
    I am liberated from my old racist ignorant ways, I am a new man!
    I just helped an old black woman cross the street, I just sent half my nest egg to black organizations ( steps towards my redemption) and then I took a whip and I punished myself (until I saw blood ) for being white, something I will do every day from now on because I am also a heterosexual male so there are at least three reasons to flagellate myself.
    I am also considering offering my woman to black men to use as their sex slave to compensate for what my ancestors did to black people.
    Thank you joe for having made me a better person!

  22. In 2008 Obama claimed that he was going to transform America, but what we didn’t know that in his vocabulary “transform” means destroy. Orwell is smiling, newspeak is now the official language of America.
