Letter to the editor: Do your own research on RGGI
Marc Mondor’s letter “RGGI will allow Pa. to be globally competitive” (Jan. 30, TribLIVE), promoting the Regional Greenhouse Gas Initiative, which is a tax on power generation in its most basic form, is a ruse in its most basic form.
With his imploring of Pennsylvania to join the RGGI, he is no different than a street corner beggar asking for money since his company relies heavily on government (crony capitalism) via grants and tax credits to exist. He just wears a suit while panhandling.
I suggest reading the Allegheny Institute for Public Policy’s policy brief No. 37 from Volume 19 for a clearer understanding of RGGI.
Don’t be misled. Do your own research. The truth is hard to find these days.
