Will Grigg?s Liberty Minute

July 24, 2009

Let?s give Congress and the Obama administration the benefit of the doubt and assume that they are not deliberately seeking to destroy what remains of America?s middle class and our country?s economic vitality. But if that were their intention, how would they behave differently?

Congress recently enacted legislation to impose a Carbon tax on every productive activity for the supposed purpose of restricting so-called greenhouse gas emissions. It will suffocate what?s left of America?s industrial economy.

China has made it clear that they will not adopt similar measures. Not to worry, insists Obama?s Secretary of Commerce, Gary Locke: Americans will simply pick up the tab for China?s pollution.

During a recent meeting of the American Chamber of Commerce in Shanghai, Locke said that because American consumption is causing greenhouse gas emissions in China, ?then quite frankly Americans need to pay for that.?

No, Mr. Locke: Social engineers like you should pay for the needless destruction of our economy.

Let us take back the liberty wherewith Christ has made us free.
