Taxes always benefit the people, unless your system is a Kafkarian nightmare, in which case the taxes benefit nothing and nobody.

How are the people not going to benefit from improved environment and decreased chance of global warming?

Bye Bye Economy. There, I said it.

already been said.

Havoc beat you.

because the government don't use the money for they say they're going to use it for. it least the US government.

Do have evidence that suggests this?

In the UK there is solid evidence (at least I think). The members of parliment were using our money or something like that to buy houses and such or they were avoiding tax and whatever.

But that's just general corruption. Nothing to do with efforts to fight greenhouse gases.

Oh sorry, I meant to carry on from Mr. Odd's idea of not using money properly and not telling you what for.

Whose fault is it for letting this get so out of control?
