I think any public policy that doesn't account for the fact that most CO2 emissions don't come from the United States, but they come from other countries, is a flawed policy. So let's not unilaterally tax our power, our people, to solve a global problem.

We can score political points. We can try to advance some important initiatives.

If you look in a dictionary, the word 'Indianan' may appear.

We refer to ourselves as Hoosiers.
