One elevator is designated for Hess employees only and just stops on the Hess floors.

I get it now - thanks.

So, perhaps Linseed Gramnesty has some financial incentive from Hess. I wonder what benefit Hess might get out of a "cap and tax" bill and the resultant crippling of the US economy.

Hess, just like power companies WANT Cap n Trade and the reason is very simple.

Even with all the fee’s and taxes they will pay on emissions, Cap n Trade is profitable for any company that produces energy products. They don’t have to produce a thing and can profit off of it!!!

Think about it - a power company can purchase “carbon” off of the market, increase their fee’s to their customer base (including the additional taxes/fee’s from the bill) and resell their “credits” for huge profits.

Cap n Trade does nothing for the environment - it’s nothing but a money making scheme for investors, governments, and companies to involves themselves in and screw the public on.
