The socialists attack again --- TAX, TAX, TAX, TAX anything and everything. Karl Marx would be proud. We have to hand it to the liberals -- they can really create a false reality that either can be taxed or can generate money taken from the government....it is their lifeblood -- like ticks on a dog sucking the blood out of it.
That's why the UN and environmental wackos have been pushing global warming so hard.
"Follow the money" is still good advice.
I wonder how they'd feel if we were to modify their little taxing scheme a bit ?
Give each country a GHG "allowance" based on GDP per capita of 1990 levels. If your GDP per capita is lower than the US, then you pay a tax until you can bring your populations's productivity up to the level of Americans.
Some guy was lecturing to a local radio talk sho host about how that an atmospheric temeprature change of just 2 degrees would cause coral to die couldn't explain how a the coral survived the many ice ages and warming cycles.
Tax his cow, tax his goat,
Tax his pants, tax his coat.
Tax his ties, tax his shirts,
Tax his work, tax his dirt.
Tax his chew, tax his smoke,
Teach him taxes are no joke.
Tax his car, tax his grass,
Tax the roads he must pass.
Tax his food, tax his drink,
Tax him if he tries to think.
Tax his sodas, tax his beers,
If he cries, tax his tears.
Tax his bills, tax his gas,
Tax his notes, tax his cash.
Tax him good and let him know
That after taxes, he has no dough.
If he hollers, tax him more,
Tax him until he's good and sore.
Tax his coffin, tax his grave,
Tax the sod in which he lays.
Put these words upon his tomb,
"Taxes drove me to my doom!"
And when he's gone, we won't relax,
We'll still be after the inheritance tax.
And when the job is finally done
Tax that evil, evil sun
Exactly! Tax? The rich hypocrites like Gore can afford to pay someone else to use less energy so they can have enormous carbon footprints...but the poor are going to end up poorer if this somehow became law. Democrats, always attempting to keep people under their thumb.
