John Boehner exposes Cap and Trade bill.
An absolute must watch from minority leader John Boehner as he discusses some of the particularly disturbing details of the latest climate bill. Boehner has been rather spotty in terms of sticking up for the little guy, but when he comes through - he does so with a BANG!
His speech delves into the bill's shocking reach of government control. We are going to be mandated and told where to install electrical outlets, how big they should be and which appliances they should accommodate. We will be forced to prove to a government official every time we make a house upgrade that our upgrades increase energy efficiency! In case that is not bad enough, Fannie and Freddie will be awarded with extra moneys such that they can issue mortgages dependent on energy efficiency. The bill also introduces new federal mandates based on "green" efficiencies and by using Freddie/Fannie will enforce such mandates.
Further restrictions are being imposed on building material as those deemed worthy by our government officials.
Unfortunately it does not stop there, as Boehner points out that specific provisions and special funds are being allocated to upgrading and building low income housing as it pertains to energy efficiency and this is being done with money that we do not have. Thankfully he makes a snide, but timely remark wondering if ACORN is eligible for the aforementioned work. Most likely John, most likely.
Please watch.
