Brumar, > If I'm not mistaken, China has passed us in CO2 production. But that doesn't count.

"Cap and trade" will further encourage outsourcing, this time of CO2 emissions.

If corporations are forced to trade away their manufacturing plants here in order to meet some artificial cap set by Congress, unemployment will skyrocket.

Why build a new plant here and worry about its CO2 output? Just build it in China. They have "carbon credits" to spare because it's all "per capita."
