More unintended consequences of nutty liberal policies . . . Cap and trade will likely exacerbate global starvation:
Other than the “liberal” bit, you’re on the money. Don’t get fooled by the left/right business, that is a charade. Yes this idea is being pushed by “left” politicians but the idea has been around for a long, long time and the people behind it are neither left nor right but rather fascist. And the idea is to slow population growth worldwide but especially in the third world. Increasing food costs is one easy way to do this.
Again, don’t be fooled by your real concerns about the environment — yes we are screwing it up but these new laws and taxes will do nothing to stop that. They are simply designed to extract more wealth (and power) from the common man and funnel it straight to the top.
