“Betraying the Planet” by Krugman is a piece of drivel. It will do nothing for the planet and the mythical “emergency” of global warming – or climate change or whatever they’re calling it these days. It’s a tax on EVERYONE – even the poor, who Obama promised would NOT pay higher taxes. Now they’re talking about taxing us on everything – even the very air we breathe. This government is out of control.
