Steed, it's time to move to the US. We have taxes up the wazoo but nothing like GB and Canada. Heck we even have 5 states with no sales or state income tax. :D

I'll pitch you a tent in the backyard Steed. You won't have to pay property tax. Internet connection might be a bit dicey tho. Sadly, the nearest proper 'pub' serving fish and chips is up in British Columbia. :lol:

How is a tax going to help combat global warming?

So you understand where I stand on the subject. How do we know that warming isn't a natural event in the cycle of cooling and warming?

I guess I'm a bit tired of hearing that throughing more money at a problem is the solution.

Stealth taxes. Over here, they're known as "embedded" taxes.

Which is why I support the Fair Tax. Perhaps you Brits need something like it?

STEED 10-29-06 03:10 PM

What is the point of these green taxes if the rest of the world dose nothing? I am not having ago at the rest of the world, just pointing out something that stands out and yet my Government can not see it. I know I have to pay tax but why is my Government bleeding us all dry?

I am sick of this constant tax I have too pay, I can no longer afford a private pension and any way after having a good talk to some real experts who said if your not on £25,000 to £30,000 a year forget it.

This is the worst Government too date and yet they will be voted back in to office, in Scotland there is a old joke Labour could put a pig up as a candidate and paint it red and stick a Labour flag up it's rear end and people will vote for it.
