In this time of financial uncertainty, could you ever imagine that the United States government would consider a proposal to reduce household income, raise energy prices and ship good paying American manufacturing jobs overseas?

Well, they have.

It is called the Lieberman-Warner Climate Security Act and it was already considered earlier this year in the United States Senate.

Both independent and federal government studies alike have concluded that the Lieberman-Warner bill – which will be considered again next year – would have severe impacts on jobs, household income, gasoline and home-heating prices, and cost taxpayers trillions of dollars. All of this for little, if any, environmental benefit.
