It’s only fair if you also tax the polar bears, wolves, and caribou.
And what about fish? I say, WHAT ABOUT FISH?
Whales, too! And Spotted Owls.

Considering a rancher would only get about a $1 per lb. at market, we’re looking at higher beef prices for sure.

As a woman, in protest of this ABSOLUTE ABSURD TAX, I fart, now, as opposed to ‘toot’. I’ll just do it ‘out loud’ and not excuse myself to go to ‘the powder room’. If anyone asks........I’ll tell them.

I feel sorry for whoever has to measure the taxable emissions.

Actually I think we ought to revolt by marching on Washington after drinking a few cheap beers and eating pickled boiled eggs. That ought to be revolting enough.

We should tax people for just being alive..Don't write that in jest.
I have been saying that exact thing for quite some time now.
Soon, a government agency will command control of the atmosphere - for the good of the planet - and tax us all into uniform misery.
I predict it will become a Western World phenomena.
Part of the trend to Western Cultural extinction.

Why not just tax everything at 100% and be done with it? Why this incrementalism? It would be the flat tax we have all been waiting for.
