The Waxman-Markey national energy tax bill appears to be headed for a vote in the House this Friday. American Solutions put together the preceding video on the imminent dangers this legislation presents.
 
The Waxman-Markey bill threatens to cripple American prosperity and the middle class.
 
The ‘cap-and-tax’ scheme this bill aims at all energy users will hit every American family with $3,100 of energy taxes. This onerous taxation will cost nearly 800,000 jobs.
 
Obama, Pelosi, and Harry Reid are recklessly toying with the American economy and the livelihood of the middle class. Waxman-Markey will finally break the back of the American economy.

Maybe we can give those 800,000 people jobs building more Tacoma Narrows Bridges and then they will have job security when it collapses again.

Aren't those numbers much lower ever since removing the environmentally potency of the bill? I thought it was down $500 a family. Regardless, now we have a bill where D's won't vote for the bill because it's too "environmentally weak." No environmental solvency on the left, and still there is economic damage on the right.
