Make the travelers step on the scales and pay a tax based upon weight.

The party wants to replace the flat fee with a new type of tax that would have a “clear environmental effect,” reports newspaper Dagbladet.

In other words, they want to replace a tax with a bigger tax.

This is likely a big deal in Norway. That place is rugged as hell, fjords and mountains make it hard to get around easily in reasonable time by ground transport. Lots of people fly a lot.

Perhaps, taxes should be based up ....race, national heritage, or left-handedness.

It’s Norwegian issue (travel taxes) and they can do whatever they want.

It’s been fun playing the game, but, really, the topic should be thorough vetting of travelers and banning the bad hombres.

Replace all flights with sleds and longships.

Much more environmentally friendly.
