GE is just one of many organizations and individuals that stand to make money if cap-and-trade makes it through Congress. GE makes wind turbines, not oil rigs, and has a vested interest in shutting down its fossil fuel competitors.

Die, corporate scum.

DOOMAGE!

Immelt bet the farm on cap and trade, if it doesn’t happen they are sunk. Their financial plan depends on government determining them as a winner.

I don't believe that cap in trade will hurt American business for the same reason Obama knows. By the time it kicks in his other programs will have already closed all of them.

My response to these assumptions is this: It gives every appearance of being a scam or proportions never before scene in the history of the world.

This Exchange came into being via grants from the Joyce Foundation in Chicago, with funding from a “Green” bank in Chicago. Guess what national political figure had ties to both? If you answered “Barack Obama,” you were correct.
