The costs of cap-and-trade

As if we needed more evidence, it turns out once again that a cap-and-trade scheme would be pretty economically neutral.

Of course "we" are people who already support a cap-and-trade scheme, and "they" are people, in hoc to powerful coal and oil interests, who, as they do when it comes to Laffer economics and any number of other issues, will simply lie about this fact to the American people. So I guess somebody out there running for president should take it upon themselves to call people who oppose the policy on economic grounds liars and begin the hard work of setting the record straight.
