Keystone pipeline = Nature more important than poor people

Mileage tax = Nature more important than poor people

Do you see a pattern emerging?
 Quoting: BRIEF


The oil from the Keystone pipeline will still get to the US. it will be brought in by trucks and rail instead of the pipeline.

Seems Biden did it to help his pals in the rail industry more than the enviroment.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76231465


That also makes it more expensive than the pipeline, and therefore FUCK the poor, once again...

Yes, they are evil.

No, it will never happen.

No, the vast majority of the citizens of the US of A
will not comply with this. This is not something that
can be controlled.

All you people that hated Trump will suffer, and suffer hard. This shit from the cabal is only the beginning. It's going to be a full on assault against us. Will that wake you libs up? Will you then admit that Trump was awesome?
When our society collapses because of lib policy, only then will you admit that we had it good here under the leadership of 45.

Why should they care? The president and congress are full of illegally elected officials.
If your wont vote for them, no worries, they have millions of dead people, illegals, and mentally incompetent people who will.

It costs money to process poop. Fat people poop more than skinny people, but fat people pay the same amount of money to process poop at a waste treatment plant. That’s not fair.

I propose a tax on the amount of poop that comes from your house into the waste treatment facility.

Soon people will be able to make their own oversized drones that they can use to carry themselves.

The technology is there, and the capability to do that is very close.

Wheeled personal vehicles' time is almost up.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 46108084


The bolded part is true.
The rest isn't.
Although the tech is there to build man sized drones, the government wouldn't allow that kind of freedom.
The Government WILL however be banning personally owned travel vehicles in the near future.
Carbon footprint and all that you know.
Same with personal private housing. Sorry - you must live in an apartment building complex.

They already tax fuel so this is actually a double taxation

What they are doing is bringing in the "stay close to home" deal. The lockdowns have shown how little people need to travel from their homes. It is a luxury that the average person has only enjoyed for a few decades. Before that it was not something many did.
