Largest tax will be to homeowners! Average $6,800 per year

[Guest guest]

 

 

Don't want to be bothered with "Political stuff?"   You'd

better read this one. It will come as a huge shock to you if you aren't

informed as to what Obama is up to, and it has already passed one

hurdle.  It will take very little now to put it into actual law!! 

YOU'D BETTER WAKE UP AMERICA !!!!

So you think you live in a free

country.

Boy have you got a surprise coming.

 

A License Required for your HOUSE?

 

If you own your home you really need to check this out. At the end of

this email is the Google link to verify.  If the country thinks the

housing market is depressed now, wait until everyone sees this. No one

will be buying homes in the future.

 

We encourage you to read the provisions of the Cap and Trade Bill that

has passed the House of Representatives and are being considered by the

Senate. We are ready to join the next march on Washington ! This

Congress and their "experts" are truly out to destroy the middle class

of the U.S.A.

 

A License will be required for your house...no longer

just for cars and mobile homes....Thinking about selling your house? 

Take a look at H.R. 2454  (Cap and Trade bill).  This is

unbelievable!  Home owners take note and tell your friends and

relatives who are home owners!

 

Beginning one year after enactment of the Cap and Trade Act, you won't

be able to sell your home unless you retrofit it to comply with the

energy and water efficiency standards of this  "Cap & Trade" bill,

passed by the House of Representatives. If it is also passed by the

Senate, it will be the largest tax increase any of us has ever

experienced.

 

The Congressional Budget Office (supposedly

non-partisan) estimates

that in just a few years the average

cost to every family of four will be $6,800 per year.

No one is excluded.  However, once the lower classes feel the pinch in

their wallets, you can be sure that these voters will get a tax refund

(even if they pay no taxes at all) to offset this new cost. Thus, you

Mr. And Mrs. Middle Class have to pay even more since additional tax

dollars will be needed to bail out everyone else..

 

But wait. This awful bill (that no one in Congress has actually read)

has many more surprises in it. Probably the worst one is this: A year

from now you won't be able to sell your house without some bureaucrat's

OK. Yes, you read that right.

 

 

The caveat (there always is a

caveat) is that if you have enough money to make required major

upgrades to your home, then you can sell it. But, if not, then forget

it. Even pre-fabricated homes ("mobile homes") are included. In effect,

this bill prevents you from selling your home without the permission of

the EPA administrator.

 

To get this permission, you

will have to have the energy efficiency of your home measured. Then the

government will tell you what your new energy efficiency requirement is

and you will be required to make modifications to your home under the

retrofit provisions of this Act, to comply with the new energy and

water efficiency requirements.

 

Then you will have to get

your home measured again and get a license (called a "label" in the

Act) that must be posted on your property to show what your efficiency

rating is; sort of like the Energy Star efficiency rating label on your

refrigerator or air conditioner. If you don't get a high enough rating,

you can't sell. 

 

And, the EPA administrator is

authorized to raise the standards every year, even above the automatic

energy efficiency increases built into the Act. The EPA administrator,

appointed by the President, will run the Cap & Trade program  (AKA

the "American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009") and is authorized

to make any future changes to the regulations and standards he/she

alone determines to be in the government's best interest. Requirements

are set low initially so the bill will pass Congress. Then the

Administrator can set new standards every year.

 

The Act itself contains annual required increases in energy efficiency

for private and commercial residences and buildings. However, the EPA

administrator can set higher standards at any time. Sect. 202 -

Building Retrofit Program mandates a national retrofit program to

increase the energy efficiency of all existing homes across America. 

 

Beginning one year after

enactment of the Act, you won't be able to sell your home unless you

retrofit it to comply with its energy and water efficiency standards.

You had better sell soon, because the standards will be raised each

year and will be really hard (expen$ive) to meet in a few years. Oh,

goody!

 

The Act allows the government

to give you a grant of several thousand dollars to comply with the

retrofit program requirements IF you meet certain energy efficiency

levels. But, wait, the State can set additional requirements on who

qualifies to receive the grants. You should expect requirements such as

"can't have an income of more than $50K per year", "home selling price

can't be more than $125K", or anything else to target the upper middle

class (that includes YOU?) and prevent you from qualifying for the

grants. 

 

Most of us won't get a

dime and will have to pay the entire cost of the retrofit out of our

own pockets. More transfer of wealth, more "change you can believe in."

Sect. 204 - Building Energy Performance Labeling Program establishes a

labeling program that for each individual residence will identify the

achieved energy efficiency performance for "at least 90 percent of the

residential market within 5 years after the date of the enactment of

this Act."

 

This means that within 5 years 90% of all residential homes in the U.S.

must be measured and labeled. The EPA administrator will get $50M each

year to enforce the labeling program. The Secretary of the Department

of Energy will get an additional $20M each year to help the EPA. Some

of this money will, of course, be spent on coming up with tougher

standards each year...

 

Oh, the label will be like a license for your car. You will be

required to post the label in a conspicuous location in your home and

will not be allowed to sell your home without having this label. And,

just like your car license, you will probably be required to get a new

label every so often - maybe every year.

 

But, the government

estimates the cost of measuring the energy efficiency of

your home should only cost about $200 each time.

Remember what they said about the auto smog inspections when they first

started: that in California? It would only cost $15. That was when the program started. Now

the cost is about $50 for the inspection and certificate. 

 

 Expect the same from

the home labeling program. Sect. 304 - Greater Energy Efficiency in

Building Codes establishes new energy efficiency guidelines for the

National Building Code and mandates at 304(d) that one year after

enactment of this Act, all state and local jurisdictions must adopt the

National Building Code energy efficiency provisions or must obtain a

certification from the federal government that their state and/or local

codes have been brought into full compliance with the National Building

Code energy efficiency standards.
