Wow, the Fed Monster is out of its cage! That's not in the
Constititon, that I can remember.

We dug it out once a couple of weeks ago (it's tough to find
in a 1,400 page
bill)

It's in the House version of the Cap-and-Trade bill, though
not as onerous
as it sounds. It originally applied to sales of ALL homes
but was modified
to apply only to NEW construction. It includes the gamut of
things down to
water heater insulation.

Still, it's the beginning of a federal standard of energy
efficiency and
it's only a small additional step to impose it on the sale
of existing
homes.
