This is the type of govt the founders wanted to prevent.
The Revolutionary War was over a 1% tax, IIRC.
Relax and enjoy the show.
You are either young and naive, a spy from the DUmp, or you are not too aware of the damage that is wrought by sadistic Statists that infect the bureacracy of governments at all levels.
This is not a show. It is the attempted willful destruction of our Republic. Great damage is being done to our once great Republic.
I am certain that the GOPe give lip service opposition but will in the end go along with this show.
Statism is a cancer that is quickly consuming our Freedoms.
It’s a treaty.
It must be approved by the senate.
We’re Ready to Ram Carbon Emissions Deal Through

I take it they are going to rely on a lack of transparency and the stupid American voter again.
