I am LIVID. This is such a unabashed, naked tax increase, intendd to squeeze regular folks and force guidelines upon us that will do NOTHING to change the climate. For an example of what the fuck our leaders let pass without reading, take a look at this:

SEC. 789. CLIMATE CHANGE REBATE CONSUMER REFUNDS.

‘(a) Rebate- Not later than October 31 of each calendar year, the President, or such Federal agency or department as the President may designate, shall distribute the funds in the Consumer Climate Change Rebate Fundfund- In each year after deposits are made to the Climate Change Consumer Refund Account, the Secretary of the Treasury shall provide tax refunds on a per capita basis to each household in the United States.‘(b) Limitations- The President, or such Federal agency or department as the President may designate, that shall collectively equal the amount deposited into the Climate Change Consumer Refund Account

That’s just a random excerpt. I’m just waiting for the government to regulate me out of the car hobby-something I love. What do you all love that this might affect?

What a fucking travesty.
