“Americans vote their pocket books. They will remember this one.”
Only if they realize it as actually being there as a tax.
The beuaty of this for the libs is it is a “hidden” tax, i.e. - no IRS demanding forms be filled out and a check sent to them, or withheld from your paycheck.
The effects of this tax will permeate into everything you purchase - and will never be isolated as being so much a part of you bill.
Think gasoline - the gasoline tax which is quite steep, is not collected by the government. It is collected by oil companies. It helps villify the oil companies as “ those mean and evil companies who make excessive profits” and are blamed for all increases in the cost of gasoline. And it is never known how much tax you are paying of the total unless you really dig deep.
And the carbon tax will be a lot more difficult to identify - once in the system, it will be virtually impossible to know how much of the bill it represents.
I heard the “postal stamp” talking point this morning on Fox and I gave the idiot a one fingered salute while I listened to his BS. My blood pressure went through the roof and I felt blood shooting from my eyes. I checked out the table with the Heritage article and my district just happens to be hit the worst in NC. Wonder if that’s because my Rep happens to be a conservative? I fear this will be the final blow to our economy. This is just what my county needs with an unemployment rate of over 15%. This is total insanity.
I woke up in November to a Bizzaro world!
