Obama asks Americans to join clean energy "mission"
Will Americans support cap & trade?As I write this, President Obama is speaking in Newton, IA about the need for a new era of energy exploration in the US. Thus, based on the EPA's rule that CO2 is dangerous to America's health, it's time for the US to pass a CO2 cap & trade program. According to Obama, the "American people are ready to be part of a mission," a mission to end foreign oil dependency and move from dirty energy to clean energy via carbon trading.
Are you ready to join the mission? I am.

Yes, let's move forward as a county!
Why not?
What do we have to lose? Things are already pretty screwed up.
I can think of a million reasons to assume that Congress, Wall Street, and Bernie Madoffs will screw this Cap & Trade program into a huge pork-barreled profit machine for corporations, at the expense of the taxpayer, but we have to take action now.
And if it isn't run correctly, we'll take further action later - including against members of Congress and the President if need be.
But why not believe today? We can become part of a movement, a zeitgeist that forever changes the world significantly. Why not take the risk?
