For example, if the white house cared more for earth's wellbeing and the wellbeing of small businesses and the like, then they would offer tax credits for using green energy rather than actually raising taxes. I do disagree with the idea of jobs being sent overseas, being in the wind industry, I think I have front row seat on that issue. Another issue I have with this revenue that the cap and trade will produce is...What will they do with the money? Correct me if I am wrong, but I haven't heard anything on that.....Having said that, it should be used for green research instead of being funneled back into the fed.
