Ok, you need to check this link out. The Brookings Institution, hardly part of the vast right-wing conspiracy calculates that if the Waxman-Markey Climate bill is made law it will add cost 9 TRILLION, yes TRILLION dollars. This will, obviously, have a significant effect on our economy.
This is all because of the cap-and-trade policy that the bill would make law. Because this is designed to make us use less power, the cost of that power will go way up (I've read estimates of between 40 to 90%) and with that, any product that uses power in its manufacture, production, or distribution. In other words, just about everything.
Call your congressman or woman today and tell them NO on Waxman-Markey!!!!!!

Thankfully my Congressional Representatives WILL be voting no, with no encouragement from me. How I wish they were in the majority. Thanks for the heads-up.
