An estitmate of the combined increase in taxes for both the public option health insurance and cap and trade is 26% over what we paqy now. Oh there will be new billionaries made resulting from this cap and trade thing. Al Gore for one. Let's examine something that has been ocurring in our country for a while. Why is it that the far left doesn't want us to drill for oil, burn coal, explore for more natural gas? Why are we intentionally taking down our domestic energy? Why, because when it hits rock bottom there will be some new investors in it and don't be suprised that they will be made up of gore, soros, waxman, pelosie, boxer etc. Then watch them, in the spirit of the good of the people, start producing oil, coal natural gas etc at a record pace. They will all become the new billionaires as a result. This can't happpen.

Another glorious cause which will further hamstring Americans and not reduce - anything - but your pocketbook. With internet, blogging, camera phones, the 24 hour cable TV news cycle (really only FOX), old politicians just do not get it. Less and less people are going to be misled and fooled in the future. The "old" way of "leading" constituents is going bye bye. Like pulling a kicking and screaming little tot away from the toy department, CITIZENS are demanding that pols start being forthright.
