Bob; Steve - you did not read. The discussion was that big evil businesses would be hurt by actions to curb GW Don't mean to argue - but I did read. My point is that big businesses will be hurt only to the extent that you see them being hurt. Some businesses will be helped. The extent of harm to other businesses is all dependant on how we solve the problem. Will big huge polluters be hurt - well they should be anyway. Our system now is skewed to reward the polluters as they don't pay the full cost of their practices. Other companies that do not pollute or that do their best not to pollute should be rewarded - not penalized as they are now. In my mind it is almost sinful to try to make this a class struggle between businesses and people - because there is only people in the end. steve
