Cap and Trade - A Bipartisan Success Story

I came across this excellent article recently on the history of cap and trade in the US. It's over a year old but that only effects a few aspects of the piece. It provides a great overview of how cap and trade became one of the most successful environmental programs in history under the George H.W. Bush Administration. Stunningly, it was a bipartisan effort. I know, consider your mind blown. So for those who doubt the efficacy of such a program this is a gentle reminder that it can be done, it can be successful, and it won't ruin the economy.
