Comments on: Cap and Trade’s First South Dakota Victim? http://www.constantconservative.com/2009/cap-and-trades-first-south-dakota-victim Sun, 05 Sep 2010 00:26:58 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.0.1 By: Andrew http://www.constantconservative.com/2009/cap-and-trades-first-south-dakota-victim/comment-page-1#comment-1186 Andrew Fri, 14 Aug 2009 17:20:14 +0000 http://www.constantconservative.com/?p=4347#comment-1186 Realist, given the current political environment I am sure there is a great amount of risk in building a refinery. But, what do I know? I don't know the first thing about building one. Maybe the folks behind Hyperion know something I don't know. Either way, it is, primarily, their risk to take. I hope they go for it. If they succeed the rewards are theirs. If they fail they suffer the consequences. OxfordT, junk science, indeed! It's being trotted out in every debate these days, from global warming to Keynesian economics. Opposing the conventional wisdom is to oppose (GOD)SCIENCE (Him)itself. I guess that makes us heretics.

The technology to capture it is just not reliable and the price tag is not economical. Couple that with the fact that there is no infrastructure here and environmental lawsuits up the wazoo are sure to be coming.
