Must be nice to be so rich that you can choose to pay more for things.

  I don’t have a solution for the species constantly borrowing from the future. The bill comes due eventually. If you think being poor sucks now, wait for water shortages and crop failures. I get it, everyone wants the benefits without the costs. But there are costs. Obligatory “we should have carbon taxes and cap and trade to help make the transition fair and equitable”. I’m aware the wealthy are culpable for higher per capita CO2 emissions, and as such they should bear a greater burden in this regard. Life ain’t fair unfortunately.

    Could always make the carbon tax revenue neutral. Then it mostly becomes a subsidy for the poor who aren't jumping on planes 10x/year.
