The JUSO (The Socialist Youth), under the Social Democratic Party, are determined to impose a law for a 50 per cent inheritance tax on all residents whose assets exceed 50 million francs (€51 million).

The Vice President of JUSO, Melanie Rufi stated to the Press that the rich should be held “responsible” for climate change, as they “contribute enormously to the destruction of the climate through their investments and consumer behaviour.”
************************************************************************

Jeez, the rich must also be responsible for the boogie man, hypochondria along with other imaginary bad things. I’m so WEARY of seeing the FICTION of man made climate change being blamed for every ill and given as the excuse for every unjustified action by evil people.

Lots of Swiss settled in Wisconsin. Part of our state is nicknamed, ‘Swisconsin.’ :)

Come on over! We’d LOVE your billions flowing through our economy. We’re a higher-taxed state, but nothing like 50% of your wealth. ;)

I’ll start taking the environmental children seriously when I see them renounce home heating, disconnect their electric service and cease using automobiles.

Don't forget, give up their batteries. Be they external for mobile phones, huge for e cars & bikes, or disposable for boyfriend replacements.

They can freeze to death starving in a field, so that the habitat of the endangered cave bats is protected.
