Carbon Dividend Act aids public’s health, finances

Floridians can be thankful for Florida Reps. Ted Deutch, Francis Rooney and Charlie Crist, who are among a bipartisan group that introduced the Energy Innovation and Carbon Dividend Act (H.R. 7173) in Congress. The act incentivizes the transition from a fossil-fuel economy to one based on clean forms of energy by charging for pollution and giving the money collected to all Americans.

The act would decrease carbon dioxide in our atmosphere faster than any other action that has been proposed. It would create an additional 2.1 million jobs in the first 10 years.It is good for people, improving both their health and financial standing. It is bipartisan, and broad support is important. Furthermore, it is revenue-neutral, returning the money to all Americans, allowing them to decide how to spend it.The act is a great way for Congress to begin dealing with the existential problem of climate change. Ask other U.S. representatives to co-sponsor and support H.R. 7173.

    I been looking at politics in the USA, and their seems to be a big flaw that everyone knows about, it is called corporations involved in politics.The Supreme Court considers them to be a person or persons really. Te effect of corps on politicians is concerning at best. Thus we have Senator Inc, Congressperson Inc..These politicians have no thought of representing the people only the corps, Again they represent the corps not the people. Oh that almighty dollar allures them.Boy did supreme court mess up…………The bottom line of politicians as in business is maximize profit.. The differential in donations is staggering versa via republican and democrat..at least in district………………………………………..
