The Carbon Tax

Dear Reader: With all the talk of recession, bank bail outs, jobs losses, swine flu etc, the people of Ireland are being distracted from one of the most significant, disgusting and oppressive taxes, i.e Carbon tax, which the government are hoping to burden the country with. This tax will drive the price of food via an increase in transport costs, and the proposed farm animal tax will also further drive the price of meat up at source adding injury to insult.

Dear Reader
With all the talk of recession, bank bail outs, jobs losses, swine flu etc, the people of Ireland are being distracted from one of the most significant, disgusting and oppressive taxes, i.e Carbon tax, which the government are hoping to burden the country with. This tax will drive the price of food via an increase in transport costs, and the proposed farm animal tax will also further drive the price of meat up at source adding injury to insult.

The proposed increases in petrol, diesel, and home heating oil will also limit how people move about and keep themselves warm adding further to their misery and thats before we even talk about domestic water charges.

But whats most disgusting about this proposed tax (with is in operation in various forms in other countries) is that is based on a complete lie, 31000 climatologists, historical weather experts etc, have signed a petition stating that global warming is not man made but in fact caused by activity on the sun, activity that has been proven to alter climate historically.
Al Gore, who the the poster boy for the man made Global Warming lobby, has been shown to be a hipocrate when is comes to living the greener life after it was proven that he was the owner of a polluting zinc mine, owns two large power hungry homes and the in fact that he purchases his carbon credits from one of his own companies which is a clear conflict of interest.

The UK Government even try to inact legistation that would criminalize people for having an Anti Global Warming stance, but that was defeated to the great disappointment of Gordon Browne.
Considering that the world is in financial crisis due the Government & banks total disregard for human beings who see us not as a precious life form but instead something that should be grinded into poverty and misery in order to keep us down, because when you keep people in poverty and misery they are so distracted looking after themselve and their families that they have no energy left to question the illegal activities of their Government , the banks and sham global politicians.

This is a global crisis I admit , but I am an Irish man and as an Irish man I will start trying to inform the people of this great country first about the fact that man made Global Warming agenda is a fraud and that the Carbon Tax is a result of that fraud which was all cleverly constructed by the world bank as an arm of the New World Order the same New World Order that was denied for years is now being announced as the cure to all our problems.

Who would have thought that the basic elements of life such as water and air would become things to be owned and controlled by governments, banks and their cohorts. Remember that these taxes and charges are the thin end of the wedge and like all things that are not checked in time will become the final nail in the coffin as regards living any sort of happy deceit life in Ireland.

One of the greatest tricks the devil performed was convincing people he did not exist, and the devil is definitely in the detail about what the Government propose for the people of this country.
