If it’s a tax, it’s an option for the Dems to enact. They’ll hire a PR firm, change it from “value added tax” to “value added fee” and shove it down our throats like everything else this a$$hat administration has done.

To me it’s a done deal.

How can they pay for all the extra spending - cutting the Pentagon from 600 Bill to a 100 is a non starter.

Volcker is on board, and the creditworthiness of the US may be on the line.

Take a carton of milk - add a penny when the cow is milked, add a penny when the milk is pasteurised, add a penny when it’s packaged.

When it’s transported add a carbon fee, perhaps a couple of pennies.....and when it hits the distribution center, add a penny, and when it hits retail, add a penny.

Less than a dime added per carton of milk.

Who could oppose that? Hehehe.

Remember the soda tax - a penny an ounce, they said.
