The nice thing about a carbon tax is we don't have to figure out exactly who is doing what. We just tax it and let things sort themselves out.

- IntrepidWorm 5y agoThings don't just sort out though. Where does that money go? If it goes back into a project that is equally as environmentally destructive, you've just laundered the carbon. Given that the institutions responsible for implementing and enforcing a carbon tax are inextricably linked to the institutions producing some of the highest sources of carbon pollution, I find the proposition that a carbon tax will sort anything out to be unsettling.
