| Subject | Carbon Tax, not Cap and Trade |
| Comment | I strongly support the use of a carbon tax model, in lieu of cap and trade for controlling emissions. I have already seen examples of the misuse of the Cap and Trade program as it is planned. A carbon tax is much more transparent, meets the need for income which can be used to clean up the effects of pollution, and a tax works as a more direct motivation to polluters to reduce their emissions. I do not think pollution should become a 'market' consideration by allowing it to be a Wall Street commodity. There record is not good. I trust my government to design a tax code that is consistent and effective in limiting pollution. Susan Morse Educator Carmel, CA |
