the tax requires a kind of "command and control" because the carbon has to be measured correctly (rather than relying on voluntary reports from the polluters) and the polluters have to be forced to pay the tax (rather than evading it, as is common). The two (tax and C&C) are not opposites. -- Jim Devine / "Disbelief in magic can force a poor soul into believing in government and business." -- Tom Robbins _______________________________________________ pen-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.csuchico.edu/mailman/listinfo/pen-l
