Taxes on Meat Could Join Carbon and Sugar to Help Limit Emissions

Stop the nonsense. The only thing taxes ever do is enrich the government doing the taxing. People will continue to buy meat and sugar - the only ones who will be dissuaded from buying them are those who have so little money that they can no longer afford it. Stopping poor people from eating properly so the government can snarf up more of other peoples money doesn't seem very progressive.

Your globalists overlords resent the space you take up in the Walden paradise they deserve.

Given that I have a low carb diet, meat is about 70% of my calories. I think I am just going to stay in Wisconsin, the home of sanity. Where I am surrounded by meat packers, and cheese factories and of course the frozen custard in the the summer time.

Is there currently a tax here in the USA on carbon or sugar? I thought those were limited to NYC soda and foreign carbon

[jughandle]

Will he propose a heavy tax on the Fiber One line of products...for emissions purposes....

Cattlemen have one helluva lobby.
Good luck with that.

Not sure about other Freepers meat prices in their area.. but ours is already high as heck. Bacon? Use to be a sale for 2 for $5. Now you have to stock up if it is on sale for $3.99 a pound. Beef? Goodness.. don’t get me started. Even turkeys this last Thanksgiving were way higher than last year. Right now my downstairs freezer is loaded with thighs and legs (.99 cents a pound). It has gotten to the point that when I pick the kids up from school, they ask, “What type of chicken are we having for dinner?” :)

Not sure why in total, but this just angers me.

Some people have way way way too much free time.

Get a job or another hobby, if you have enough free time that it comes to this, in your mind.

Enough already!

Global warming IS NOT caused by man.

The government takes too much of our money now!

Now I understand why the left condemned meat for so many years: so as to justify this tax.

[SandRat]

That's because Cattle, Horses and Cowboys FART, A LOT. Bloomberg and ENVIRONMENTALIST RIDICULE

[MarMema]

We just loaded the freezer with venison given to us by a friend.

[Redwood71]

What does meat have to do with gas unless you count rode kill?

Sugar is taxed? I thought it was subsidized. If they mean "sugary" drinks, the great majority of those are HFCS...

If they tax my steak, can I tax the tickets to their movies?

[kanawa]

Keep it up and I’m going to start eating liberals.

[JimRed]

No thanks, Mr. Bloomberg.
