re: #14 Aceofwhat?

Sure. You could increase low-income tax credits. Those people would still have incentive to reduce the amount of fossil fuels that they burn, to save more money, but don’t need to starve in the meantime. Again, this isn’t terribly complicated.

Really slowly this time:

Tax credits don’t help if the people aren’t paying taxes in the first place. Unless you’re actually proposing paying them money to cover the cost of the fuel— which would actually obviate the effect of having the tax in the first place, in a supremely useless move.

You’re not listening. I’m done talking.
