How??? How are they going to make $$$ out of this. And most importantly, how will the $$$ they make offset the losses to decreased coal sales (which is a massive export industry in this country and a huge source of government revenue) and disensentives to energy consumption and all other forms of consumptions due to emission restrictions. If you ask me the only people playing scam politics are the flat earth global warming deniers.
Its called tax! The government will find other means of getting back their revenue believe me. The other scam will be all those niche financiers, brokers and new spin off companies/subsiduaries dealing with emissions trading - they will make a nice tidy profit in the process.
