Exactly. See Here
Bump for posterity.
Thanks for the ping! Great read!
Now, here’s something I know about.
“However, the same, regulated companies do not worry about carbon emission regulations because the consumer will ultimately pay whatever the increased costs.”
I have operated a public utility, water, for 30 years. Our profits are determined as a percentage by the Public Utilities Commission. Let’s say we’re at 10% now. It’s actually 11.5%, but,,,,and with a lot of rounding off,,,
If we produce and deliver X amount of water that costs us $90 to produce, we charge $100. The profit is $10.
If, due to new regulations, it now costs us twice as much to produce X amount of water, $180, our 10% yields us a profit of $20. Great! We doubled our profit!
Even if the Utilities Commission cut our profit to 7.5%, we still win. Then they nationalize all utilities!
Truth is simple.
Lies require "tangled webs"
Maybe we should send this to everyone on Capitol Hill and the SCOTUS?
of course, they already know this - it's just that there's no way to make money and gain power off it.

As we have seen here in freeperville, even an error pointing out that the AGW crowd is wrong, will still give them an excuse not to read and comprehend the entire communication.
Good article E.. I hope the climate realistics,eerrrr GW deniers in Congress end up with copies of these forms of testimonials. No use giving a copy to say Boxer. She is to dumb to know how to read most likely. Not that she would be willing to change. Senator Inholfe and others have probably shown her so much stuff already she knows the truth.
Hypothesis??? or ... FRAUD!!!
It’s nice to see that all the “global warming” enthusiasts, that were being paid to prove it was real, are now accepting government grants to disprove it. The more things change the more they stay the same......
I hope you are wrong.
In any case, I would bet my bottom dollar that these grant programs are using Outcome Measures (OM) to report results.
FYI - OM was created by United Way to disguise wasteful spending of donation money. Now, OM is being used in almost every controversial grant program where traditional output measures would easily show waste to the taxpayers.
CO2 is plant food, they can’t live without it!
~CO2 is what plants crave!~

Interesting info TT, thanks.
Bump!
It is about extracting money from your billfold...without you seeing that the Government is doing it.....
