The Cap & Trade Climate fraud is a thinly veiled attempt to impose world wide wealth redistribution on American Working and Middle Class families. As the following link makes clear the United Nations is still intent on getting their hands in your pocket. This $1,300 energy levy is a piddling amount compared to what the UN is ultimately prepared to take from you.

There is no person currently in a better position in Washington, DC to influence the President than Dr. Singer.

Singer wants to cap your family’s income at $30,000 per year or less. Here is Singer’s as well as the President's solution to world poverty.

This is what the Global Warming hoax is designed to accomplish, redistributing your wealth to the Third World.
There was recently a riot at South Africa Climate Conference when it became apparent that the US, and emerging national economies like China's and India's were not going to pauper themselves with Cap & Trade energy taxes just to enrich third world economies, like South Africa's. The people in the Third World understand the purpose of Cap & Trade, it behooves the rest of us to grasp the Cap & Trade concept before it is too late.
