Science Schmience. My radio leader tells me what to think!

(Man, I should have invested in that mobile-home company. I'd be rich!)
 
So there shouldn't be a cost with trashing the environment? Should your local chemical company be able to dump their waste in the river if it runs through their property? How about if their factory is on top of the aquifer your town gets its water from? The cheapest solution is to just dump it in the ground, right? Your wife and kids might get cancer, but you'll save 12 cents on some product you buy. Can't let any pesky government regulations get in the way of that.
Gotta love the liberal mind. Somehow you're trying to make the case that since I'm against useless taxes for airlines I'm advocating dumping chemicals into the water system?:nuts:

Let me ask you a question. Where is the revenue going from these "carbon taxes"? I'll give you a hint, it's not going towards planting trees.

Right on. In Europe, several countries have an eco tax which is nothing more than an alternative (tax) to fill big deficit holes. The tax sounds nice because the government likes to make you believe that they are working on an ecological solution.

Like the 'nam vets say in DC, love your country but fear your government. And that includes both sides of the spectrum.
