In reply to TEEJAYZ.

“More jobs will be created”. Name one. Maybe picking up all the dead birds around the windmills?
Paying less for utilities? Did you miss where the Emperor Jones proclaimed “electricity prices will skyrocket”?

Note Chu’s slip of the tongue quoted there. What strange Orwellian world has emerged where you can’t take the government leaders at their word?

Here’s what I keep trying to wrap my head around but can’t.
Let’s say, for the sake of argument, that climate change is a “hoax.’ That all the data that’s been compiled is strictly about making money.

But isn’t that what the oil and coal companies have been doing since they’re been around? Running businesses to make money?

Now unless the ‘hoaxers’ can explain to me why they would rather breathe polluted air and drink contaminated water, I just don’t see the money trail they seem to want to follow. More jobs will be created with a big switch to renewables. That’s for sure. And they’d be paying less for their utilities too.

So the only conclusion I can draw is the hoaxers are standing in support of those who hurt them. I’ll never get that.

The ONLY thing a carbon tax will do is make energy more expensive, and move millions into poverty. But, I guess that is the plan…
