  3. Regulate an industry and you get money;

    Yes, the lobbyists get money.

    Here in reality, that's where the money is going, not to congresscritters and bribes.

    And look at the lunatic fringe in comments in the Oregonian. Is it any wonder they are going to vote on regulating carbon when this is the best the grass roots can do??

    Best,
