Why the Economy is Limping

Cypress Semiconductor CEO T. J. Rodgers points out the basic reason the economy is going nowhere, and it has nothing to do with cap and trade.

Cap-and-trade is increasingly seen as the final crushing burden on a business community that wants to hire, wants to expand, wants to expand the economy, yet is frustrated by an administration more concerned with the earth's climate than the business climate, an administration that, as Rodgers says, has "us worried because we do not know what the government is going to do."

Emphasis, most definitely, added.
