Run the environment labels and then get back to me about "global-warming," readers.
How you like be taxed for a lie, folks, while the richers keep jetting and limoing!
"Businesses in Bay Area May Pay Fee for Emissions"
SAN FRANCISCO — Air quality regulators in the San Francisco Bay Area appear set to begin charging hundreds of businesses in the region for their emissions of heat-trapping gases.
It is believed to be the first time in the country that any government body would charge industries directly for emissions that contribute to climate change. The regional agency that is considering the fee, the Bay Area Air Quality Management District, would be effectively leapfrogging the continuing debate in Sacramento and Washington over how to control emissions.
The businesses affected by the fee — 4.4 cents per ton of carbon dioxide emitted — range from large petroleum refineries and cement plants to small gasoline stations and industrial bakeries.
The air quality management agency has long had independent authority under state law to regulate businesses that emit conventional pollutants like fine particulates. In establishing a new fee, it would be stretching its mandate to include carbon dioxide, methane and other heat-trapping gases....
Regulators indicated that the fee could raise $1.1 million annually.
What it is ALL ABOUT: $$$$$$$$!!
Refineries, power plants and cement plants would pay nearly 90 percent of total fees. The largest gas stations might be charged $1 a year; the Safeway bakery that supplies bread to all stores in the Bay Area would pay $85 a year.
So they say. Once they get the thing through, who knows?!
It's like the spy powers for "terrorists," then you find they are using it for other things, too!
How much longer are you going to allow these globalist scum to pick your pocket, 'murkns?
They really got you to buy the turd of global-warming, didn't they?
Taste good, does it, as you are handing over that tax check?
Next thing you know, they will want a fart meter to measure the methane you put out, 'murkn!
Gonna cram it right up so it can get good readings!!
