Anyways my wife asked the other women what they thought of the Cap and Trade bill that was being pushed through congress. Do you know what the result of this mini-poll? Not one women in 7 ever heard of Cap and Trade.
Yes, you heard right. They had no opinion because they never heard of it until my wife asked them what they thought of the bill.
I know this is just one example but these woman were not housewives or people who were recluses. All these women were court reporters(stenographers) and a couple were business owners.
Interesting, huh?

My wife was in Pa for 2 weeks. I picked her up at the airport yesterday. Among the many things we talked about on the drive home was the "cap+trade bill. I brought it up and asked what she and her family thought about it.... well, she had no idea what I was talking about and obviously it wasn't discussed. I do think the majority of citizens remain in the dark on this. When their health care benefits start getting taxed I betcha they notice that real quickly.... likewise with skyrocketing utility bills.
