Obama’s hidden bailout of General Electric
By: Timothy P. Carney
Examiner Columnist
03/03/09 8:12 PM While many companies hire lobbyists to win earmarks, General Electric’s unmatched lobbying force has secured a tax increase — or its equivalent — in President Barack Obama’s budget.

Labeled “climate revenues” and totaling $646 billion over eight years, this line item in Obama’s budget has inspired confidence in GE Chief Executive Officer Jeff Immelt. As Immelt put it in a letter this week, he believes that the Obama administration will be a profitable “financier” and “key partner.”

On page 115 of Obama’s fiscal 2010 budget is Table S-2, titled “Effect of Budget Proposals on Projected Deficits.” The chart forecasts the costs of Obama’s spending proposals and the added revenue of his proposed tax increases. It also forecasts, beginning in 2012, billions of dollars a year in “climate revenues.” This budget line, which has struck fear into some lawmakers from coal-dependent states, could spell salvation for GE in these times of uncertainty.

How can Obama generate “climate revenues”? By forcing companies to pay for the right to emit greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide.

A tax on greenhouse gas emissions could accomplish this, but Obama’s preferred policy — and the approach embraced by a few congressional bills in recent years — is called “cap and trade.” In short, cap and trade requires businesses to spend “credits” to pay for their emissions. Businesses can buy or sell these credits, and the market — not the government — would directly set the price of a credit. Government would initially auction them off, generating revenue.

GE — a member of the U.S. Climate Action Partnership, which advocates cap and trade — leads the push for greenhouse gas restrictions.

Seems Bill may onto something


GE Calls for U.S. Cap and Trade System

July 30, 2008 - A top executive at General Electric told Congress this week that the best way to beat climate change is to assign a dollar value to carbon emissions, Reuters reports. Speaking at a U.S. congressional panel Monday, GE vice chairman John Rice argued that market pricing for carbon emissions, along with government tax credits, will encourage new investments in emerging low-carbon technologies.

"A lot of times we get questions like, 'Is this possible, can it be done?'" Rice said. "Carbon capture and sequestration can be done today, it's technically viable. Is it commercially viable? Not yet ... We have to be thinking in terms of both technical viability and commercial viability."

GE has a lot to gain from goosing the alternative-energy market. The company's $20 billion Ecomagination program, aimed at developing new environmental products and services, is fast turning into one of its biggest moneymakers. Revenues from the Ecomagination portfolio crossed $14 billion in May and are expected to pass $25 billion by 2010.

O'Reilly continually stated "if the story turns out to be true".

It appears that he knows something about an on going investigation and knows where it is headed.

Not only in bed, but making sure the news is slanted and provides glowing coverage of Obama and the Dem party

Meanwhile, as the company orders the pom poms be waved constantly for Obama and the Dems, the value of the company continues to tank - and stockholders and retired folks lose their investments

but you are not a stockholder, you dont know any stockholders do you?

yes, i am not pleased how their running a channel into the ground, or how imelt sold stuff to iran, etc etc etec

but no sense being mad about what you cant control mate


Why would anyone not be? You have retired folks losing their retirement funds, you have stockholders being silenced when they point out the bias, and thre CEO lying to stockholders that he would not cut the dividend

Like most liberal nets, it is sinking yet they think the answer to act more liberal and hire more liberals as "reporters" and hosts of shows
