Ooookay , that ' s a nice meltdown you ' re having there . I ' m not sure what you being Jewish has to do with anything , or what I ' m pretending to be . Yes I am familiar with actual neoNazis . Do you know what antifa is ? They are a group which actually combats neoNazis . I don ' t visit 4 chan . National socialism is disgusting to me , and will always be disgusting to me . The deflection of criticism comes from people who label Trump supporters as Nazis . To me , that is encouraging ignorance of what national socialism actually is . Have a great day . <| sep |> I swear I remember him saying this at least once . <| sep |> Add him to the short loan list and hope he gets loaned before he gets sold . <| sep |> The problem with this as a model , of course , is that it misunderstands two things 1 by taxing flimflams , the government incentives conservation . 2 their are competitors to oil , see wind , solar , even natural gas , which produces less Co 2 . Thus , solar and wind becomes viable in places where they wouldn ' t be if the externality isn ' t corrected . Additionally , because conservation efforts save some amount of oil used , the price of oil doesn ' t rise by the whole value of the tax . Given that oil companies are competing with solar and wind , they also absorb some of the taxes to make solar and wind viable in slightly less places . Either way , taxes disincentivize consumption , so the state works .
