Cap and trade coming soon

Ever heard of cap and trade? It is a bill that will make energy costs soar in the United States. It is a scheme to tax all forms of energy..for what? So that politicians can take more taxdollars, supposedly to tax your carbon emissions. You breathe? You emit carbon. In our President's own words: 
"Under my plan of a cap and trade system electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket. Businesses would have to retrofit their operations. That will cost money. They will pass that cost onto consumers."
