output of CO2 if nations like India and China are exempt ?


Assuming the man-made global warming is real, its only going to take a few years for countries like China to surpass the CO2 levels that we have today in the US. Oil companies will just move their operations to those countries that don’t have the restrictions and increased taxes that accompany the trade and cap bill.
 
The US can't legislate for India and China. You realize the US uses a huge percentage of the worlds energy, right? We are just 4% of the worlds population...unlike China and India. They will never have as little output as we do.

Also, how are we going to press other countries to do something we aren't doing ourselves?
 
it will get worst,

all the US factories will move there and pollute like crazy

this is the typical "feel good" liberal solution for smooth sailing.

they pat themselves on the back, just after ramming the ice berg.
 
Why are you worrying about what India and China are doing? Do you not mow your lawn because one of your neighbors doesn't?

If we are able to do something positive for the sake of the planet, then we must. And if you pay any attention at all to the business world, you'll realize that Europe still has a very lively business sector even though they've had a cap and trade system for years. "You do your best business on Main Street." Well, that's here in America for most of these businesses.

And if you're worried about the oil companies leaving the US, then you're worrying about the wrong thing. They're refusing to retool and move with the tide just like GM did. They're doing everything they can to avoid getting into alternative energy and when the big demand is for things other than oil and coal, they're going to go bust. Every product has its cycle.

I find it surprising how little conservatives know about business, sometimes.
 
Yeah, despite the fact that global warming is a joke, this bills is even more so.

The only effect it will have is Al Gore's pockets will grow fatter.
