President Emmanuel Macron says his fuel policies are needed to combat global warming.

Glad he said this...now people far and wide will know just how far Leftists are willing to go for their religion of Climate Catastrophism.
They’ll have rampant poverty and crime and a once great country in ruins, but at least their cars will be pumping clean fuel!!
And in the end, ladies and gentlemen, that’s all that matters :)
And just how, Monsieur Macron, will your abusive tax, in your small country, overwhelm the purported environmental impact of China? With China's massive use of coal for electrical generation, whatever France does on it's national level will be a drop in the proverbial bucket of global weather.
Macron, like all good socialists, wants to rob the bourgeoisie to the point of subsistence living, while he and the elites will live like royalty.
People buy into this fraud like sheep following a Judas goat. Disgusting.
France in twenty years will be pure hell.
Yes, it’s insane that they think people will just pony up and pay for such fake horse crap.
This carbon crap is already hitting me for at least 5k a year. I used to make fun of the idiots who believed this stuff in 06 and on. Now, I’m not laughing as it’s stealing from me.
Let’s hope sanity returns.
What doesn’t get brought up...there were two tax increases. A mild one for gas-cars....a more hyped-up one for diesel cars. Well, more than 70-percent of the cars registered in France, are diesel. It’s something like 28-cents on a gallon of diesel that this added up to.
The effect on truck-drivers? Same story. In their case, they were going to pass the cost onto the consumer. So down the line, you were looking at grocery and food prices escalating by spring of 2019.
The enthusiasm of the police to enforce stability? I would suggest that they are also owning diesel cars and facing the same tax. They aren’t happy either.
Statists mock Christians for their end times scare tactics.
Then the statists figured out how effective end times scare tactics can be so they settled on turning changes in climate into a scary, scary bogeymen to cow people and induce them to pay more in taxes to fund their dystopian boondoggles.
