Some people work for their money and quietly amass personal fortunes. Others make a lot of noise, flease the taxpayer and contribute nothing to the economy. All the while telling us it is for our own good.
IMF head says world must come to grips with climate change costs

Impossible... because it always comes down to distributing wealth. That is their solution. Taking wealth from Western Nations only and distributing it to everyone else. Mandatory reduction of emissions is just the vehicle to seize wealth.
And the world's second largest economy, soon to be first is STILL given an exoneration on this. Why? Because China will tell them to stick it up their azz today and 1,000 years from now and they know it. They know China is not soft and will never bend to the wants of these clowns. They will neither reduce their emissions nor will they pay if it is not in their interest.
That is true. A billion and a half people with absolutely no conscience among them.
Which is why they aren't even targeted by the GW crowd. They are actually defended by them.
Ivory sales are booming now... because China wants ivory trinkets.
Redistributing wealth will lower emissions from any region wealth is pulled from but will rise where distributed to with no loses of emissions. Great f-cking plan.
Oh exactly... Nigeria needs to become equal to Germany (for example) so they can do as they please with the free cash until then. When they are equal THEN they will be required to comply with standards. Great f-cking plan.
It's not.
That part of the argument had more to do with the financial crisis and 'reforming capitalism'.
The two options for reducing emissions she proposed are a carbon tax and cap and trade - neither of which are a direct redistribution of wealth.
I get it now...
Capitalist emitters = increase in global warming
Socialist emitters = the only salvation for the world
Both options don't change anything other than people pay yet another tax
Neither of which implies any noteworthy redistribution of wealth.

Because you post the same information using different words, do you somehow believe that the base premise is different?
None of this supports your assertion of a hidden socialist agenda...
There are many issues to consider in designing fiscal policies to mitigate climate change:
- the appropriate tax level and base, and the treatment of traded goods;
- the role of complementary policies—such as clean technology research, development, and deployment policies;
- the balance between carbon and other taxes in financing the government’s budget and how to use the additional revenues;
- the treatment of forestry and other non-energy emissions; and
- how to address impacts on vulnerable households and firms.
Factsheet -- Climate, Environment, and the IMF
BINGO.
Game, set, match.
None of which will actually mitigate climate change. None.
I've said before their is a nasty correlation between Carbon Credits and the Global Trading Oligarchy.
It's no surprise radical environmentalists and the corrupt world trading and financial apparatus support each other in promoting the hoax of AGW. Both intend to limit basic industrial and agricultural production to spike profits by creating revolving scarcity of the fundamentals of life.
Keep in mind that Legarde has no intention of limiting her own lifestyle or that of the Oligarchs. It's the poor and increasingly the former middle classes that will suffer.
Legarde is a witch... casting spells and hexes around around a cauldron with her sisters in the WTO and World Bank. These organizations are utterly corrupt... utterly in the service of the Global Free Markets that are impoverishing and destabilizing the world.
