IF you own a Home Read this it will make you SICK.!!??

Something every home owner should be made aware of!

Don't want to be bothered with "Political stuff?" You'd better read this
one. It will come as a huge shock to you if you aren't informed as to what
Obama is up to, and apparently it has already passed one hurdle. It will
take very little now to put it into actual law!! YOU'D BETTER WAKE UP
AMERICA !!!! So you think you live in a free country, boy have you got a
surprise coming.

A License Required for your HOUSE?

If you own your home you really need to check this out. At the end of this
email is the Google link to verify. If the country thinks the housing
market is depressed now, wait until everyone sees this; no one will be
buying homes in the future.

We encourage you to read the provisions of the Cap and Trade Bill that has
passed the House of Representatives and being considered by the Senate. We
are ready to join the next march on Washington ! This Congress and whoever
on their staffs that write this junk are truly out to destroy the middle
class of the U.S.A ....

A License will be required for your house...no longer just for cars and
mobile homes....Thinking about selling your house. Take a look at H.R. 2454
(Cap and Trade bill). This is unbelievable! Only the beginning from this
administration! Home owners take note & tell your friends and relatives who
are home owners!

Beginning 1 year after enactment of the Cap and Trade Act, you won't be able
to sell your home unless you retrofit it to comply with the energy and water
efficiency standards of this Act. H.R. 2454, the "Cap & Trade" bill passed
by the House of Representatives, if it is also passed by the Senate, will be
the largest tax increase any of us has ever experienced.

The Congressional Budget Office (supposedly non-partisan) estimates that in
just a few years the average cost to every family of four will be $6,800 per
year. No one is excluded. However, once the lower classes feel the pinch in
their wallets, you can be sure these voters get a tax refund (even if they
pay no taxes at all) to offset this new cost. Thus, you Mr. And Mrs. Middle
Class have to pay even more since additional tax dollars will be needed to
bail out everyone else..

But wait. This awful bill (that no one in Congress has actually read) has
many more surprises in it. Probably the worst one is this: A year from now
you won't be able to sell your house. Yes, you read that right.

the caveat is (there always is a caveat) that if you have enough money to
make required major upgrades to your home, then you can sell it. But, if
not, then forget it. Even pre-fabricated homes ("mobile homes") are
included. In effect, this bill prevents you from selling your home without
the permission of the EPA administrator.

To get this permission you will have to have the energy efficiency of your
home measured. Then the government will tell you what your new energy
efficiency requirement is and you will be forced to make modifications to
your home under the retrofit provisions of this Act to comply with the new
energy and water efficiency requirements.



Then you will have to get your home measured again and get a license (called
a "label" in the Act) that must be posted on your property to show what your
efficiency rating is; sort of like the Energy Star efficiency rating label
on your refrigerator or air conditioner. If you don't get a high enough
rating, you can't sell.

And, the EPA administrator is authorized to raise the standards every year,
even above the automatic energy efficiency increases built into the Act. The
EPA administrator, appointed by the President, will run the Cap & Trade
program (AKA the "American Clean Energy and Security Act of 2009") and is
authorized to make any future changes to the regulations and standards
he/she alone determines to be in the government's best interest.
Requirements are set low initially so the bill will pass Congress; then the
Administrator can set much tougher new standards every year.

The Act itself contains annual required increases in energy efficiency for
private and commercial residences and buildings. However, the EPA
administrator can set higher standards at any time. Sect. 202 Building
Retrofit Program mandates a national retrofit program to increase the energy
efficiency of all existing homes across America .

Beginning 1 year after enactment of the Act, you won't be able to sell your
home unless you retrofit it to comply with the energy and water efficiency
standards of this Act. You had better sell soon, because the standards will
be raised each year and will be really hard (I.e., ex$pen$ive) to meet in a
few years. Oh, goody!

The Act allows the government to give you a grant of several thousand
dollars to comply with the retrofit program requirements IF you meet certain
energy efficiency levels. But, wait, the State can set additional
requirements on who qualifies to receive the grants. You should expect
requirements such as "can't have an income of more than $50K per year",
"home selling price can't be more than $125K", or anything else to target
the upper middle class (and that's YOU) and prevent them from qualifying for
the grants.

Most of us won't get a dime and will have to pay the entire cost of the
retrofit out of our own pockets. More transfer of wealth, more "change you
can believe in." Sect. 204 Building Energy Performance Labeling Program
establishes a labeling program that for each individual residence will
identify the achieved energy efficiency performance for "at least 90 percent
of the residential market within 5 years after the date of the enactment of
this Act."

This means that within 5 years 90% of all residential homes in the U.S. must
be measured and labeled. The EPA administrator will get $50M each year to
enforce the labeling program. The Secretary of the Department of Energy will
get an additional $20M each year to help enforce the labeling program. Some
of this money will, of course, be spent on coming up with tougher standards
each year...

Oh, the label will be like a license for your car. You will be required to
post the label in a conspicuous location in your home and will not be
allowed to sell your home without having this label. And, just like your car
license, you will probably be required to get a new label every so often -
maybe every year.

But, the government estimates the cost of measuring the energy efficiency
of your home should only cost about $200 each time. Remember what they said
about the auto smog inspections when they first started: that in California
it would only cost $15.

That was when the program started. Now the cost is about $50 for the
inspection and certificate; a 333% increase. Expect the same from the home
labeling program. Sect. 304 Greater Energy Efficiency in Building Codes
establishes new energy efficiency guidelines for the National Building Code
and mandates at 304(d) that 1 year after enactment of this Act, all state
and local jurisdictions must adopt the National Building Code energy
efficiency provisions or must obtain a certification from the federal
government that their state and/or local codes have been brought into full
compliance with the National Building Code energy efficiency standards.

Please take my name off this mailing list. There is too much that is factually inacurate in partisan mailings these days. I go to the library of Congress Web site and read the bill myself. Here's the link to the latest version of the bill: http://thomas.loc.gov/cgi-bin/query/D?c111:4:./temp/~c111MnXJGQ::


Thanks

well roll with it don't them any different thank them then when the time comes offer to take that unsellable home off their hands as a family favour ok maybe not but n any event let them enjoy their fear they do ya know and if they spread it to others well inform them unless of course they are of the same ilk
