- raphaelj 5mo agoWell most of the increase in prices goes into petroleum companies' profits (at least the ones that can export). So it's technically not lost and will be invested somehow. Like a Carbon tax, the money doesn't disappear. But to whom it gets distributed, that's another story...
- ericd 5mo agoYeah, definitely would’ve preferred a revenue neutral carbon tax and dividend, but that wasn’t happening anytime soon.
