I don't know ANYthing about this particular bill so should probably just log off
But... I want to remind people that a targeted e-mail is unlikely to contain unbiased information. It's even possibly inaccurate.
If I understand the concept of cap and trade, the whole point is to decrease energy use. So when you talk about eventually a possible $6000+ tax bill, I assume that means if you used energy now like a typical American AND continued to use energy down the line like a typical American rather than decreasing your energy use and getting more efficient.
I think the whole point is to be an economic disincentive. Kind of like when gas shot up and folks stopped driving every tiny little trip they had to make.
