A fine article from National Review describing the key objectionable features of the "American Clean Energy and Security Act, also known as Waxman-Markey Bill or the "Cap & Trade" Bill. There are many objectionable provisions in this bill, but the one which signifies the depth to which it makes government intrude into your lives (besides the punative tax reprecussions) is the one forcing state governments to inspect and certify your home to be in compliance with the rules (light bulbs, energy compliant appliances with "carbon output" labels, etc), before you are allowed to sell it or to obtain a building permit.
