From Casey Research:

EPA Makes Big  Move on Carbon Regs
.
Under the program, which EPA Administrator Lisa Jackson signed  into effect on Tuesday, 10,000 industrial facilities that generate more than  25,000 metric tons of greenhouse gas, and collectively produce 85% of the  country's greenhouse gas emissions, must start collecting greenhouse gas data  on Jan. 1.

If the implications of this aren’t as clear as the fingers on your  hand, either you need to visit the eye doctor or you don’t have fingers. This  is, not to use extremist language, akin to the Nazis asking German citizens to  identify how many Jews are living in the household. Once the data collection  begins, can the fees and fines be far behind?
.
How much could this cost businesses? And what about a new  bureaucracy or expanded EPA to check the findings of the companies... or the lawyers’  fees to settle disputes about findings?

Actually this isn't going to cost the businesses a penny, - any increased cost/fines will be passed along to us. .... If you can't get "Cap & Trade" passed by Congress, - then do it without them. Take away the citizens input.
