Dingell: Cap and trade a 'great big' tax


Rep. John Dingell (D-Mich.), ousted by Henry Waxman (D-Calif.) in a race for the Energy and Commerce Committee chairmanship earlier this year, has called Waxman’s cap-and-trade system “a great big” tax.

Dingell, who backs a carbon tax, didn't express opposition to the cap-and-trade proposal but says he wants to avoid missteps made in countries that implemented the system.
