I was only operating at yours and Fluffers level.

Since any attempt to communication above that, would be lost on either of you.

Read it.

That didn't disqualify that the carbon tax reduced emissions and is revenue neutral.

Neutral? Impoverished lending the province cash money and waiting a year to get it back with zero interest is not f-cking neutral. It is stealing from the poor.

now if anyone was wondering if the whole mmgw debate was BS, there's your sign
(though, I am not certain its a good sign if it takes a person this long to see something that plain)

Let's add in the inflated neutral cost of living. Why else would BC fruit and veg be 20¢ an lb cheaper in SK?

Oil companies and banks are behind every scam on the planet except AGW.

They sent their best that is for sure. So much for that 'recovery' you always imagine happens.
When you say there is nobody better than you to deal with idiots that really makes you sound like the king of idiots in all honesty.

Is this one of those messages or is this you being an idiot? It might matter to somebody somewhere.

You're not elevating yourself or disproving my well established claim.
Trust me when I say chatting with you doesn't elevate me or anybody else that does it. More like that lone mosquito in the room after you turn out the light for a nap. You might as well get up and hunt it down as soon as it makes it's appearance known to you. You should be able to relate to that.

You're not elevating yourself or disproving my well established claim.
'oft repeated' claim

Actually I can, your posts truly are just about as substantive as the high pitch hum of a mosquito.

Very good of you to be able to admit that.

It's revenue neutral.

Look it up.

It's as easy to understand as subsidies.

There's no such thing.

But lets say for one second, there is. Why place a carbon tax on anything? If it's neutral, just shuffle the funds without filtering it through the taxpayer.

The revenue to the government lost from carbon reduction is made up somewhere else.

That is all that revenue neutral means.

I'll take the revenue positive route and head to Washington state for gasoline with everyone else.
