No, Mr. Friedman, what we need to do is stop spending more than the nation takes in by reducing spending, fixing the tax code, and reforming entitlement programs, but that is never part of the liberal agenda.

A phased-in carbon tax of $20 to $25 a ton could raise around $1 trillion over ten years, as we each pay a few more dimes and quarters for every gallon of gasoline or hour of electricity.”
okay, but only those who make over $100,000 a year, and if they have kids, raise it $25,000 a year per kid and a none working wife.
we will all carry a card to insert into the gas pump that tells how much we have to pay per gallon.
$1 trillion over 10 years is not worth the trouble if you're going to overspend $10 trillion a year.
You're just treading water. 0ef3547545e754b2e6e3c4616de252169f680b2

P.S. what about people like you who live in NYC and don't drive, you get a free pass on the gas tax, we'll have to figure up how much gas you would use, then charge you the tax, you can send it in quarterly.
