Did you read the article to the point where the writer speculated that it would be good for the auto industry? Not all energy would be taxed, just the ones now subsidized as they choke the atmosphere with heat-trapping carbon. Such a tax would substitute for others we pay across the board. We consumers would have choices to avoid carbon. But the reality is that Congress now is too close to Big Oil and King Coal to try such an effective social tool."
HEY! I really like the way that you think; that taxes, when used properly, help EVERYBODY! I have initiated a Buddy Request. Please be my Buddy, buddy.
