How does this help the poor and middle class?

Question

Obama as quoted in the San Francisco Chronicle:

"Under my plan of a cap and trade system, electricity rates would necessarily skyrocket. Even regardless of what I say about whether coal is good or bad. Because I’m capping greenhouse gases, coal power plants, you know, natural gas, you name it — whatever the plants were, whatever the industry was, uh, they would have to retrofit their operations. That will cost money. They will pass that money on to consumers."

Well, actually, the quote is about new coal plant construction that would be a severe polluter -- just like China seems to have anywhere. Obama wants to fine those who build such plants.

And McCain has the same approach, supporting clean coal technology instead of old set-ups.

You say you are a union fire fighter for the Elephant party. I am a uaw member so you think we can keep on polluting the air and live much longer? Well i am willing to pay a little extra for cleaner air for my son and grand kids. See we are the ones who polluted this planet now it is our job to clean it up. If Obama not elected it will get worse than what is now. Do you own a foreign car also? If you do your are cutting your own throat more American workers means less taxes which means no raise for you.And or new and needed saftey gear.

Obama is going to lead us into a severe financial crisis and all of the people who voted for him will deny it but they are the ones that are going to wreck our great country. Think very carefully when you go to vote tomorrow. Don't vote based on what "feels good". Vote for who is the best man for the job. If you think Obama is the right man, you probably have a screw loose but go ahead and vote for him and in 6 months explain to us what "change" means.

Obama supporters dont care if electricity rates skyrocket. Most Obama supporters either live with mommy and daddy or live in ghetto apartments where the utilities are paid.

It doesn't, he wants to solve all the world's problems at once, no matter what the cost... or it is all relative to who he is talking to on a given day.  Vote McCain/Palin, its the only logical choice.

Obama doesn't care about anybody but himself. He wants to be generous with money but only other people's money. He is not what we need. I pray this turns out great for us tonight!
