Wasting Time With Alex

This is too simple

Do you need any more proof that the left is using the topic of man made global warming to push a socialist agenda and to enact a global socialist government that’s going to primarily redistribute the world’s wealth? Have a look at what the proposed plans are:

WASHINGTON—Dealing with global warming will be painful, says one of the most powerful Democrats in Congress. To back up his claim he is proposing a recipe many people won’t like _ a 50-cent gasoline tax, a carbon tax and scaling back tax breaks for some home owners.

“I’m trying to have everybody understand that this is going to cost and that it’s going to have a measure of pain that you’re not going to like,” Rep. John Dingell, who is marking his 52nd year in Congress, said Wednesday in an interview with The Associated Press.

Dingell will offer a “discussion draft” outlining his tax proposals on Thursday, the same day that President Bush holds a two-day conference to discuss voluntary efforts to combat climate change.

But Dingell, chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee that will craft climate legislation, is making it clear that he believes tackling global warming will require a lot more if it is to be taken seriously.

Oh Please! If these morons were really about stopping man made global warming, they would be spending money on building nuclear power plants - the only viable means of generating relaiable electical capacity - and switching to drilling for more of our own natural gas, oil and coal in order to supplement the energy requirements while bringing up enough capacity to allow us to switch to other alternative energy technologies. Not straddling us with more idiotic taxes that will then be used to buy votes through socialist handouts. What a crock of shit.
