DALLAS, Feb 16 (Reuters) - Texas and several national industry groups on Tuesday filed separate petitions in federal court challenging the government's authority to regulate U.S. greenhouse gas emissions.

Actually, no ... no they won't. The thing that will se a major impact is YOUR WALLET! You think these companies are just going to "eat" the loss? Think again, Batman.
In December, the Environmental Protection Agency ruled that greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide endanger human health, opening the door for the agency to issue mandatory regulations to reduce them. More here:
Right. Forget having Congress pass laws ... the EPA can just bypass Congress and hit your wallet directly. Sweet, huh? Think "taxes." The executive branch (Obama administration) is going to start taxing you. They won't call it a tax, they'll call it a fee or a penalty to corporations but you'll pay ... you'll pay just like it were a tax on you. Keep voting for libs.
