Huckabee in 2007: “I think we ought to have some cap and trade.”

Former Arkansas Governor Mike Huckabee on Facebook Monday slammed President Obama’s plan to cut carbon emissions from coal power plants.
The Obama administration largely expects this to be done by using a "cap and trade" policy, in which states place a limit on carbon pollution and must purchase permits to exceed it.
States that use the cap and trade system will be rewarded with "financial benefits," and those that achieve their goals of decreasing carbon use can trade in their permits for cash.
