Low energy ideas

A deconstruction of the cap and trade argument can be found here. But with so little time for boomers to re-accumulate assets before retirement, is now really the best time to be saddling the economy with additional tax, thereby slowing its recovery? Any piece of legislation is subject to CBO analysis of the benefits and costs. Their conclusions are questionable at best, and the tortured methodology they employed suggests a predetermined outcome in need of support material, however skewed. Ironically, baby boomers overwhelmingly supported and voted for Obama, the man I believe (in all seriousness) will ultimately be most responsible for their inability to make it back.
