Re: Some things besides energy that will cost more under cap-and-trade
Absolutely. But don't forget that petroleum is used in making plastics and dyes. So not only will something that's made out of plastic cost more due to higher transportation cost, it'll cost more due to higher electrical costs, higher dye costs, and higher plastic costs.

yes, virtually anything that is manufactured and has mass but even downloaded software takes power so its pretty much everything. and thats over and above one's own personal energy consumption. and all to not even put a dent in global carbon output. but of course thats not the point of this anyway. only a blithering idiot would buy this crap. but then again there are still some people who think CO2 is the culpret. heanven help us..... the polititians yen for money is insatiable....

Re: Some things besides energy that will cost more under cap-and-trade
Cap and trade isn't really about mother earth, it's just a cloak for redistribution of wealth.
Hey, didn't Obama say that he was going to have rich people foot the bills? Hello inflation!

There is another consequence to consider as energy prices get higher due to cap-and-trade forcing us to use a fraction of the oil that we are using today: this is that many of the things we use today will either have to be re-made with other materials or we'll have to do without them. Kramer

Porn's not on the list.
We're good.

Re: Some things besides energy that will cost more under cap-and-trade
You sure? If you stream porn over the internet, I gotta believe that it'll cost us someday because it requires power to run the net and the servers and switches, etc.
I wouldn't be surprised if someday it costs money to surf the net. Kramer
