Australia dumps Paris farce!!

The state of Washington is holding a referendum on whether to implement a carbon  tax.

Will Washington State Voters Make History on Climate Change?

The state could be the first in the union to adopt a carbon price by ballot.

Let me guess, big business and the prog elites support it and the average Washingtonian who has to pay for it does not. I'm betting on the progtards and their financiers.

Putting a tax on carbon emissions is like putting a tax on nuclear weapons. They aren't going away either.

Or firearms.

Hmmm....a 300% tax on firearms...



Not a bad idea.



And a $500 surcharge on each round of ammunition.

That will keep guns in the hands of responsible owners that can afford them like the Hells Angels, triads and cosa nostra.

The odd thing is that it is rare that these criminal organisations kill innocent civilians...let alone walk into schools and slaughter children.

In some cities in the United States, the murder rate has dropped, but Chicago isn't one of them.

FNC is currently showing a special on Chicago.



Some blacks want a black mayor, because only a black man can solve the problems of the black community.



I wonder if they have considered the consequences of appointing politicians by race?

Most big US cities have done exactly that  ... most  big cities are run by  only by Demoncrat for between 50 and 80 years, all by  Demoncrats (the actual problem is agenda, not race)  ..... seems voters in cities are slow learners cause ain't nothin changed in any of the cities except for change the worse



Detroit 84 straight yrs for example and look at it today as it heads for year 85

Everything run from Canberra, Ottawa or Washington?



Is that really possible in big countries.

[Bricktop]

Of course?

We already have Federal Government institutions managing issues like immigration, taxation and welfare throughout the whole country without a problem.



Modern communications and air travel mean the tyranny of distance has been somewhat minimised.
