So exactly what about a carbon tax == fascism. Or are you just spouting nonsense?

Sadly no matter how you try to finagle it, there will always be poor. Humans breed until they stew in their own wastes. We are no smarter than yeast. Except, maybe yeast know the definition of fascist.

The truly wealthy in this country get that way because they game the system. Some day the sheep will wake up and drag the maggots down into the sewer. Until then I will complain about the imperial capitalist pig printing press mofos. You are a pig.

Communist trolls make baby jesus cry.

The Bush administration have achieved nine of the ten required steps towards fascism here:

Carbon credit trading? Tell me with a straight face that isn't a feel good gambit that will accomplish nothing at the end of the day except shifting the unsustainable CO2 emission location from one place to another.

Humans are going to zero carbon emissions. We can do it ourselves or mother nature can take us out of the picture. Pretty simple, eh?
