Cap N' Trade is Bullshit. If I sell the rights to not break into my neighbors house to a burglar it creates a secondary market in burglary credits that helps the economy and generates fees. I make money, the burglar that buys them gets an extra house to break into and the cost of breaking and entering goes up, so there is less of it. Will someone please use the reply space to explain how breaking into people's lungs with pollution is different than breaking into your neighbor's house?

I just don't see the point of cap and trade, seems like a lot of overhead and room for obfuscation compared to a straightforward carbon tax. But I guess "tax" is the shortest 4-letter word in Washington.

cap and trade is a scam. not unlike indulgences of the middle ages.
