UK, the Carbon Trust attempting to influence the democratic debate in the U.S.

Despite growing pressure for public spending cuts in the UK, the Carbon Trust is expanding its empire to establish a presence in the U.S. and China.
The Daily Mail has learned that the organisation, which received almost £100million in taxpayer funding last year, is trying to recruit a Head of Carbon Trust U.S.A.

Critics expressed astonishment that the trust was attempting to influence the democratic debate in the U.S.

Iain Murray, an energy expert at the Competitive Enterprise Institute, a U.S. think-tank, said: ‘ Americans are extremely sceptical about the cost to America of emissions reduction.

GE Using CNBC, MSNBC to Promote Cap-and-Trade for Financial Gain

Obama has gotten support from the NBC networks both pre-election and post-election.

O’Reilly said. “According to reporting by the Washington Examiner, GE is heavily lobbying the Obama administration for bailout money. The company is also pushing for the proposed cap-and-trade program. Apparently GE has set up a joint venture it hopes would manage billions of dollars in cap-and-trade transactions should that corporate carbon tax pass Congress.”

“Now think about this ladies and gentlemen a failing corporation, General Electric might reap billions of dollars if the Feds OK the carbon deal,” O’Reilly said. “By the way, GE is already getting taxpayer bailout money for its financial unit. So it’s not a stretch to assume Immelt would want to help President Obama as much as possible.”

According to O’Reilly, the level of corruption is so big, it stands to make Watergate look small.

“This is obviously a major story when a powerful corporation, which controls a major part of the American media, may be using its power and the airwaves to influence politics, in order to make money from government contracts,” O’Reilly said. “That kind of corruption would make Watergate look small. We hope it is not true.”
