"California Ratepayers to Receive Cap-and-Trade Dividend"
So, they take money from us and then return 85% of it and call it a dividend? Wow. These are the same people who are profusely printing money like there is no tomorrow...
And what about getting our money back on all of the other things that are going to cost more from cap-and-trade?... Oh, I forgot, the goal here is to make things more expensive for us so we consume less and save natural resources for the rest of the world so developing nations can develop and get more women working so they have less kids. And also to save Gaia.
