What does that prove? That a bunch of other academic tin-foil hat wearers
liked
your story? Come on...


Tsk, tsk, Steve. Can you provide any support for your "obvious" position? Deux
Lare...


It would in no way spur conservation, nor would it spur the economy
(especially
not ours). All it would do is facilitate the trading of another 'commodity',
with
the attendant money to be made by doing so.

Tin-foil hat thinking indeed!


Actually, such conservative pro-business groups as the US Chamber of Commerce
have supported CO2 emission allottment trading. Since it would allow companies
that come in under their allottments to sell their allottments to companies too
economically burdened to improve their production efficiencies.

Before you just wave this away, Steve, remember that GW Bush has already said
the emission trading schemes DO work -- it was part of his justification for
reducing air pollution regulations.

If you won't support your arguments ( a waste of time in your words) could you
at least make them a bit more sophisticated than simply saying "Because I said
so, that's why!"

Some of us obviously lack your vision of "obvious" truth. So, some support from
reputable sources would be nice. If it's too much a waste of time, one wonders
why your responses without support aren't a greater waste.

Happy MLK Day!
