Why bother?

Oh, yeah, to give us a reason to make political donations:
The cap-and-trade bill is a travesty. ... It gives emission permits away, and tells utilities to rebate the windfall to consumers, so their electricity bills do not go up. It creates a vastly complicated apparatus, a playground for special interests and rent-seekers, a minefield of unintended consequences – and the bottom line for all that is business as usual.
