If it’s a tax, it’s an option for the Dems to enact. They’ll hire a PR firm, change it from value added tax to value added fee and shove it down our throats like everything else this a$$hat administration has done.
To me it’s a done deal.
How can they pay for all the extra spending - cutting the Pentagon from 600 Bill to a 100 is a non starter.
Volcker is on board, and the creditworthiness of the US may be on the line.
Take a carton of milk - add a penny when the cow is milked, add a penny when the milk is pasteurised, add a penny when it’s packaged.
When it’s transported add a carbon fee, perhaps a couple of pennies.....and when it hits the distribution center, add a penny, and when it hits retail, add a penny.
Less than a dime added per carton of milk.
Who could oppose that? Hehehe.
Remember the soda tax - a penny an ounce, they said.
