Okay no one gets a raise to pay for this stuff, loud and clear.

Is the carbon tax money at least going to go to the places with the extractive and intensive industries the carbon comes from?

If you can find a politically acceptable policy that makes money for raises to everyone suddenly appear, lots of people would be very interested in that.

You cannot demand that we stop using cheap processes and then simultaneously be surprised that the alternatives are less cheap, but for the final time - and I'm afraid I'll be checking out here - revenue can be used to subsidize those alternatives and make them more affordable.

Cheers.
