Rush Limbaugh: Big Oil Surrenders to the Hoax

Rex Tillerson, I think, is throwing in the towel because he's looking around the world and he sees that leftists have taken over institutions.

What he sees is that a carbon tax on you, is far less damaging to him than a cap-and-trade program (that Obama wants) is on him. A cap-and-trade program on businesses, meaning emissions will be governed and arbitrarily set by government, and if you exceed those emissions, you have to pay a fine or you have to trade with a company that's not getting close to what it's allowed to emit and so forth. All of this under the false premise of reducing emissions that cause manmade global warming, which is a hoax! Cap-and-trade programs are miserable failures wherever they have been tried. They are hoaxes that benefit the likes of the designers, Algore and others. So Rex Tillerson, as a CEO, is doing due diligence here, and for his shareholders is making the right call.

He has concluded that governments around the world are going to raise taxes on somebody, on something having to do with energy, and he's absolutely right. And he says that the lesser of two evils is a carbon tax on carbon dioxide emissions rather than cap-and-trade. But it still, to me, represents a surrender. Why won't somebody stand up -- especially now, with abundant evidence -- and point fingers at all these people and say, "You're lying to us! It is a pure agenda-oriented hoax. We're not going for it. We're not going to raise taxes. We're not going to participate!" Well, Obama and Harry Reid this week both have said global warming is real and we must do something about it, and they couldn't care less whether it's real or not. All they care about is the opportunity it presents to raise taxes. (sigh) So, it's a surrender out there, ladies and gentlemen. However, I want you to know that here at the EIB Network, there is and will not ever be surrender.
