Stop the tax on your life, say no to the new Climate Bill

Target:
USA
Sponsored by: 
Stop the government from taxing your life. The new carbon tax and related bill H2454 (http://www.opencongress.org/bill/111-h2454/show), will increase taxes by an average $175 per month per household. Nearly every thing, let alone every person has a "carbon output", and there is no real way to control it. Yes we can all drive hybrid or electric cars, but what about those who can not afford to buy a brand new car or the insurance for it. We can all cut down on waste. We can all recycle more. We can all do things that are good for the environment, but do not be fooled by the government. We do not need these taxes, we do not need a "Green Bank". This bill put put hundreds, if not thousands of small to medium businesses out of business. This bill will unjustly take more money out of the pockets of the people. 300 pages were added to the already 1200 page bill the morning of the vote, before anyone could have had a chance to read them.  This bill must not pass. It is simply a way to gain more control over the people, and force them to pay money they don't have, and with absolutely no just reason.

We The undersigned, do not agree with the new Climate/Carbon trading bill, and feel that it is unjust, and uncalled for. This bill will increase taxes, and will infringe on our personal rights and liberties.  If this bill passes it will create a new "green bank" that will be run by private individuals, and companies. This bill is simply another way to take money out of the pockets of the people, and into the those of the people in power. 

Thank you for taking the time to read. Please do not allow this bill to pass.

We are already taxed on food, water, and shelter. These are basic necessities of survival. Do not tax carbon monoxide. The air we breathe is the last thing in the world there is no tax on. Do not take our last right away.

To Whom it may concern. I, like many others feel if you want to help the american you will make sure that this bill does not get passed. It is a bill that should not be backed and will do very little good for the country and the working class of which I am a part of. Thank you for your time, Severiano A. Martinez Jr.
