Democrats know their energy bill will cause job loss!

It’s written into the bill! Thanks to reader Donny, I wrote about this on the 24th of June. Maybe US News reads my blog!

In her remarks bringing the debate over the climate bill to a close, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi of California urged her colleagues to vote in favor of the cap and trade bill, saying the measure was about four things: “jobs, jobs, jobs, and jobs.”

She was right-the House-passed version of cap and trade is all about jobs: jobs lost, jobs never created, jobs sent overseas, and, unbelievably, jobs people will be paid for doing long after they cease to exist.

According to Friday’s Washington Times, the legislation includes language that provides, should it become law, that people who lose their jobs because of it “could get a weekly paycheck for up to three years, subsidies to find new work and other generous benefits-courtesy of Uncle Sam.”

Okay, maybe the Washington Times reads my blog. Or maybe Donny sent them an email. This was my take on it on the 24th of June, before the bill passed the House.

God, and those playing God with our money and our children’s future, only know what’s in the bill. I wonder how many of them will read this disastrous piece of legislation before voting on it.

The bill acknowledges that it will cause massive unemployment and provides for extra benefits for select constituencies when that happens. What about the rest of us? What about the kids who won’t be able to find work when they grow up? Who will compensate them?

Click here for the text of the bill. If you don’t need to eat, sleep, work or go to the bathroom between now and Friday you may get through it. Let me know what other nuggets you find in there. Oh, and watch out, there’s a warning that the document is so large it could crash your computer. Don’t you just love this new transparency?
