True but if the carbon tax people get their way, these people are

?? Carbon tax people? Do they live in Malfoy Manner?

We would be talking about H.R. 2454 (the cap and tax bill) that just
passed the house and is sitting in the senate as we speak.

There are lots of things in there that will get people who think the
government is out of control mad.
Coal miners will be out of work fairly quickly, taxed out of the
market. but there is also an interesting thing floating around the
internet. You will have to get an energy star label for your house
before you can sell or refinance it (inspections and 30 more pages of
bureaucracy I haven't waded through yet)
The internet story is you can't sell your house without being
certified but I don't see that language yet

If you want some light reading take a peek

I couldn't get the link to work... I seriously doubt one's home would be
required to have an energy star label like my fridge does.
