Hoax Letter from former Classmate

Obama's plans for the United States.... Told By hi sCollege Class...

This is probably a hoax letter of some sort. He said, "cap and trade has nothing to do with global warming." FALSE.
He probably didn't know anything about the Kyoto Protocol and what it's supposed to do with the reduction of greenhouse gas emissions. He said, "It has everything to do with redistribution of income, government control of the economy and a criminal payoff to Obama's biggest contributors." FALSE again.

The Kyoto Protocol introduced three market-based mechanisms, creating what is now known as the “carbon market.” One of the Kyoto mechanisms is "Emissions Trading," also known as "cap and trade." Member countries are allowed to emit a certain amount of pollutants into the atmosphere (that's the "cap"). Countries that have emission units to spare (units of greenhouse gas emission that they are allowed but not "used," that is, not emitted into the atmosphere) are able to sell their spare capacity to countries that have gone over their limits. This is a new commodity, created in the form of [units of] emission reductions or removals. Projects that reduce or remove greenhouse gases from the atmosphere earn "carbon credits," that can be sold to countries or corporations who have exceeded their caps. Since carbon dioxide (CO2) is the principal greenhouse gas, carbon is now tracked and traded like any other commodity. The market where it is publicly traded
is known as the "carbon market."

FW: Obama's plans for the United States.... Told By his College Class...

If this man's job is paying him a good amount of money spreading libelous garbage such as this then we can surmise that he does not care for the people who lost their jobs after the 8 years of Republican administration that let the big financial firms run amok and brought the country at the precipice of depression (about 4 million), he does not care for people who cannot get medical treatment because they have no insurance (even more than the number of unemployed), There has been nothing in the news about making Puerto Rico the 51st state. In fact Puerto Ricans don't want it. Same with legalizing 12 million illegals, no news.

The only people who would believe him are the uneducated, ignorant and overly religious who cannot reason out what this man is saying.
