Does cap and trade step on the 10 amendment? Stealing powers from states & sending it to Federal Govt?
"powers not granted to the national government nor prohibited to the states are reserved to the states or the people."
The federal Govt. overstepping their rights… Nationalization going crazy with Obama!
Here is all the codes that the Federal Government is imposing:
California standards that currently ran them BANKRUPT!
It gives the federal government branch of energy power to set any law they want!!!! (.. has the power to change the consumer’s habits anyway they need…)
EVERY HOUSE MUST HAVE AN OUTLET THAT WILL CHARGE AN ELECTRIC CAR.
I’m typing as they say it on c-span… Fannie and Fredie will get a credit for every energy efficient house they loan out….NOT YOU!
Tons of credits to fannie and freddie if they loan to people who can afford their new green standard
all new construction: They tell you what building materials you can use.
the fed. govt. holds the power to decide what is green.
shifts massive amounts of power to the federal Govt. to decide how you can build your house.
all appraisers to be retrained to appraise your house on green standards which will effect the price of house.Your house will be worth less if it is not green… This is for old houses and public buildings too.
Steven.. are you crazy? you into BDSM? You never choose Federal Slavery! Power to the States yes but not transfering all power of the whole United States to ONE HOUSE! That is insane.
basically the Federal Govt. (white house) will come INTO your home and tell you how to live. Slippery slope of Dictatorship.

No.
Every house that has electricity can ALREADY charge the batteries of an electric car.

Sounds like a good plan to me. Sometimes, government needs to force people to plan for the future. I really hope Obama able to do that without break the republicans.

When the people voted for Obama, most did not know that in return they would get their rights taken away and that their country would begin to evolve into a command economy. Those people thought that they would be getting checks in the mail and lowered consumer prices… in return they got coal preservations banned so that their energy cost would shoot sky high and a president that wanted to ruin their country. My question is where did the constitution go? I still believe in it. "For the people, by the people, to the people". When did they overturn that? When did the government think that it was right that they stepped up their control and lowered our rights? Where’s the freedom and justice in that? There is none.

Yes. And the 4th amendment. The bill allows Federal Employees to come and inspect your house and make sure your up to standards.

NO kidding!! The slope is getting more and more slippery with each bit of news out of Washington. I’d say we are pretty much in free fall now.
The bums that voted for this are traitors to the Constitution that they swore to uphold. They should be arrested, charged with treason, and sent to the FEMA detention centers that "don’t exist" although $380 million was paid to KBR in 2006 to develop them.
