@401RoadWarrior Yeah man! Why should the people have to take responsibility for their own future! Leave it up to the government to get money for itself somehow! Maybe they can grow money fairies with all of the money they make to grant them money! Fuck the future! I HATE PROGRESS!!!!!!!!11111111111one­oneoneone

Im from Aus, and the whole point of the carbon tax is to premote diffrent ways of making energy and getting away from fossil fules. Once again i bring back the point of if there is no Envoroment there will be no Economy. Money does not mean anything if we have nowhere to live. You would be a lunatic not to want progression

[401RoadWarrior]

@Typho0n86 Only a lunatic will ever ask for such thing, carbon tax, in CDA. We've had a CONSERVATIVE gov in power since 2006, they just won another 4-year MAJORITY gov, our federal gov STRONGLY opposes ANY kind of carbon tax, even a remote one. On top of that, Alberta Oil Sands is the #1 economical jewel of CDA, you hurt Oil Sands, you destroy our economy. Our oil, ETHICAL OIL, as opposite to bloody oil from Middle East or Venezuela, goes mostly to USA. So ZERO chance for carbon tax in CDA.

@401RoadWarrior Yeah paying for a more sustainable future sucks. We shouldnt have to pay to make OUR planet safe for future generations. Who else is ment to be paying for it? Money is no object to make progress. If you care about money then u are the greedy scum that is making this world uninhabitable, you are a cancer on this planet. I hope that where i live we get this carbon tax passed, Without and enviroment there will be no economy!!!

Taxes in Sweden:

- corporate tax: 26%

- income tax: up to 55%

- VAT: 25%

Why nothing in this propaganda video about WHERE THE MONEY IS COMING FROM TO BUILD SUCH GREEN FAIRYLAND?

Glad I dont have to live over there and be forced to give most of my hard-earned money to the freakin' gov and its demented green ideology!

@LeadHammer

I know. Pure Communism is stateless, the opposite XD I just said so because that's what everybody know it as and I didn't feel like explaining Communism

on Youtube. Though I admit that it was misleading of me.

[LeadHammer]

@yared94 Communism have never been implemented in practice. Communist countries have never existed. Communism is an utopia. At best, Poland along with East Bloc was a dictatorial socialism.

[LeadHammer]

This works in Sweden because the Swedes are responsible. The system is based on responsibility of individuals to the society. The Swedes could easily built socialism or communism with their approach to life. Sadly, this will not work in other countries. Imagine someone throwing out an old battery or a broken light bulb into a bin designed to accept food waste.
