A carbon tax could be levied on motor fuel.

Figures that the RINOs and Democrats would want to increase gasoline taxes.

Hanoi Boi, Lindsey and Joe. The piggies are getting ready to screw over the “little people” with more taxes. Nice.

Odd that McCain isn’t a co-sponsor of this bill. What could possibly be the reason?

Oh yeah, a gasoline tax will do wonders for the economy.

Think of all the people who can get jobs as rickshaw drivers!

Just when you wondered if Congress could get any dumber!

The Nazi Pelosi/Reid/Obeyme Regime needs to know the people DO NOT WANT THEM MEDDLING WITH OUR FREEDOMS!

The sheer irony of it all is that Mario Savio’s (liberal at the time) Free Speech movment speech could be well applied to the Obama Regime as it was then to the University:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tcx9BJRadfw

This is how the Tea Partiers feel:

“There is a time when the operation of the machine becomes so odious, makes you so sick at heart, that you can’t take part; you can’t even passively take part, and you’ve got to put your bodies upon the gears and upon the wheels, upon the levers, upon all the apparatus, and you’ve got to make it stop. And you’ve got to indicate to the people who run it, to the people who own it, that unless you’re free, the machine will be prevented from working at all!”

Spread the word:

WE ARE THE TRUE FREEDOM FIGHTERS — not much different than the students fighting for their free speech rights in Berkeley in 1964.

A Limerick:

A committee chairman named Max,
Discovered some relevant facts.
While he loved Cap & Trade
Higher gas taxes made
Sure that Congress got money, not Sachs

parsy, who is crashing

TRI CARE FOR LIFE This from a google search:
http://economicspolitics.blogspot.com/2009/05/tricare-for-life-is-obama-trying-to.html
This option would help reduce the costs of TFL, as well as costs for Medicare, by introducing minimum out-of pocket requirements for beneficiaries. Under this option, TFL would not cover any of the first $525 of an enrollee’s cost-sharing liabilities for calendar year 2011 and would limit coverage to 50 percent of the next $4,725 in Medicare cost sharing that the beneficiary incurred. (Because all further cost sharing would be covered by TFL, enrollees could not pay more than $2,888 in cost sharing in that year.) http://www.cbo.gov/ftpdocs/99xx/doc9925/12-18-HealthOptions.pdf

Congress plans to block Tricare fee increases

By Rick Maze - Staff writer, Oct 7, 2009

Tricare fee increases imposed last week by the Defense Department will be repealed by a provision of the compromise 2010 defense authorization bill unveiled Wednesday by House and Senate negotiators.
Snip The fee increases were announced on Sept. 30 and took effect on Oct. 1, but the defense bill, HR 2647, includes a provision barring any fee increases until the start of fiscal 2011.

Snip

Retired Army Maj. Gen. Bill Matz, president of the National Association for Uniformed Services, said the announcement of fee increases was shocking considering that the Obama administration promised earlier this year to hold off on any new fee Tricare fee increases until fiscal 2011.

“President Obama and DoD assured NAUS and the entire military family earlier this year that there would rightly be no increases in any Tricare fees” in fiscal 2010, Matz said. “We took them at their word, and I can’t believe that a co-pay increase like this was allowed to go forward,” he added.

All these asinine schemes are aimed at raising energy prices to reduce consumption. The result will be lower productivity, lower economic activity, and fewer jobs. Activist illogical policy will increase misery worldwide. Increased energy unit taxes (per btu, per barrel, per gallon) will decrease total tax revenue due to the decrease in overall economic activity, an economic death spiral.
