[quote:Anonymous Coward 73328203:MV80MTYyOTAwXzY2MjlEMTUw] When Democrats say America must "do something" about global warming, they never fully explain what that "something" is. Instead, they talk in nebulous terms about "cutting back" on the use of fossil fuels. There's a reason they obfuscate. If voters find out what they have in mind, they'll be routed in 2020, and they know it. Having embraced the extreme "do something" plan known as the Green New Deal, Democrats have a nasty surprise in store for voters who haven't looked beneath the lipstick and mascara that's being troweled on in pancake-thick layers to conceal the linchpin of their plan to "save the planet": a massive punitive tax on the consumption of fossil fuel energy. As reported by Forbes, a United Nations special climate report calls for a global carbon tax of $49 per gallon of gasoline within 12 years. You read that right: $49 per gallon. At roughly 100 times the average state and federal gasoline tax, the U.N.'s carbon tax "suggestion" would raise the cost of a 13-gallon fill-up to over $600, just for the carbon tax. https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2019/10/a_600_fillup.html [/quote]
