INTERVIEW: Climate bill’s tax wolf in ‘free money’ clothing; another disaster like EITC?

Dear producers:
Beware of environmental activists bearing free carbon allowances!

Climate bill supporters are trying to attract Senate votes for Waxman-Markey by touting the free carbon allowances that would be allocated to individual states. An analysis by the World Resources Institute (http://greenhellblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/wrifreeallowances.pdf) estimates the range of free carbon allowances for energy consumer assistance programs on a per capita basis at $40/person (California) to $160/person (Wyoming) for the year 2016. The average assistance level is $90/person.

INTERVIEW: Yes, Tennessee, there is nuclear waste in ordinary landfills all over the state, legislators allowed waste from other states as well.

Dear producers and reporters;
Please take a moment to review the alarming story below about a potentially dangerous public health issue.  Unbeknownst to many Tennesseans, state legislators have allowed other states to store their nuclear waste in ordinary landfills around the state.  While most Tennesseans support nuclear power, they do not support putting hazardous waste in landfills near residential areas, and they do not like the notion that their state legislators are so revenue-hungry that they are willing to store waste from other states.  This issue is sure to play a role in the next election cycle.
