It's coming..... and some of it is coming right now ... through the EPA. There are many ways to tax. Cracker pays attention tho....then again, I have a lot riding on it all.
They are trying to get Cap and Trade passed. It's gona be terribleyou are loopier than a box of fruit loops my friend.
name one tax enacted due to climate change.
name ONE! not even asking you for a list, if you can give me ONE new tax created (under CURRENT administration) in the name of climate change. i will leave RIU forever.
to further clarify, not your bullshit conspiracy theory, but a tax, openly stated by Obama himself, has been created to curb climate change.

Obama's words verbatim: "Under my system of cap and trade, electricity costs would necessarily skyrocket."Will you folks fighting cap and trade explain how you think it's going to affect you negatively? Lets not even consider that it's part of a worldwide effort that may benefit us all and reduce all manners of disease and death in certain parts of the world due to pollution and that it might produce cleaner air in shorter order than any other option anyone else could come up with.
Cracker, what kind of pollution producing plant do you run where it's going to directly affect your wallet? And how much polluted crap should we as a society accept from you so you can continue without making any improvements?

I am a retired firefighter and we were all trained hazmat technicians as well. We were taught that CO2 wasn't toxic. It's bad effects on humans come from it's ability to displace oxygen. You basically suffocate due to lack of oxygen in the presence of high amounts of CO2. Now the EPA wants to classify it as a toxic gas. It's only toxic in extremely high concentrations and you would be dead due to lack of Oxygen long before the toxic effects would harm you. Crazy huh?It's going to negatively affect the entire output of the nation.
There happens to be NO DATA that is conclusive that carbon affects global temps. NONE....
Wanna clean up air around factories? Plant trees, they seem to love carbon ... oh wait the new EPA poison is the building block of the planet ... oops.
Look into water vapor. There's the main culprit when it comes to greenhouse gases. This powerful change agent is left OUT of the global warming models ... can you guess why?
Of course, greenhouse gases take a BIG back seat to the sun and ocean currents. Again, no one talks about that much. Can you guess why?
Yes!!!I am a retired firefighter and we were all trained hazmat technicians as well. We were taught that CO2 wasn't toxic. It's bad effects on humans come from it's ability to displace oxygen.

Yes!!!
Carbon is now a poison ... on a carbon based planet.
Uhhh, who here goes along with that kind of thinking??
Speak up and be recognized!!!
In high enough quantities lettuce can be harmful.Yes!!!

You need to induce vomiting immediately! Now get back in your oxygen bubble and be more careful next time.omg omg i think i just breathed in some CO2 what should i do
hurry pls help!!!!!

LMAO! If they could find a way to profit from lettuce being outlawed I'm sure they'd do it.lets ban lettuce
this is your brain:
this is your brain on lettuce:
I've got worse news.... it actually works in reverse. You EXHALE the poison. So either hold ur breath, or be prepared to be vilified in public, and then taxed.omg omg i think i just breathed in some CO2 what should i do
hurry pls help!!!!!
It's funny isn't it? CO2 is as essential for life on this planet as oxygen and water. Without it life as we know it would not be possible. Even human beings rely on CO2 in a pretty direct way. Breathing is regulated by the amount of CO2 not the amount of O2. It's one of the reasons you shouldn't give 100% O2 to someone with COPD. They will simply stop breathing because there is no CO2 in the pure Oxygen.I've got worse news.... it actually works in reverse. You EXHALE the poison. So either hold ur breath, or be prepared to be vilified in public, and then taxed.
