On cap-and-trade, he's got a monstrosity on his hands. He presents a bill in which you want to auction off pollution rights—you can argue it's a good or bad idea—and create a market. Instead, his people in Congress give away almost 90 percent of the permits as patronage and political favors.
So he's got a disaster on his hands as a result of the reality of what is in the bills. You can hide it all in rhetoric, but once it gets in legislation, you can't hide anymore.
See that's what bugs me. It's taking money that I will eventually pay and giving it to somebody else's cronies, or using it to buy support for things I don't want.
