It isn't the money. It's the power.

In politics, money is a means to gain power. There will be a lot of power in the trillions of dollars that will be generated by cap and trade and straight carbon taxes.

There is little political power in abundance, prosperity, and contentment. There is a lot of power in rationing, scarcity, fear and resentment.
