I think this is a good thing. The wealthy leftwingers in NY SHOULD provide the leadership in reducing American greenhouse gas emissions. Afterall, they’ve got the money, and the rich should pick up the tab for this.

Even though I share your sentiments about the NY state rats, this initiative is a bad idea. This initiative is a trial run for the entire country. The Colorado governor is doing a similar thing. If carried to completion, these initiatives will drive electricity rates much higher, leading to price controls and shortages. The initiatives of course will not reduce CO2 levels or change the climate but they will make the rats feel powerful.

Psst!

Taxes and fees don't hurt the rich - they keep you from becoming rich

That's exactly the same sentiment that sparsely populated states used to say about taxes. Turned out a bit different than envisioned, I'd say. Beware unintended consequences.

" ... American greenhouse gas emissions."

THERE ARE NO SUCH THING AS GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS !!

There air "up there" ,, is just that ... air ... not co2 or methane or whatever .... So we don't emit anything that would make the planet into a greenhouse.

If you accept the words and phraseology and use them in language ... it doesn't matter what you say ... you're a greenieweenie.
