Hi Hans,

Shouldn't we be doing much more in the cap'n trade debate to remind people that the main profiteers are indeed the big energy firms, financiers and lawyers, and that this they really should be opposed to?

And on carbon taxation, shouldn't we be looking at progressive taxation (a human right to a lifeline supply of energy is the way we phrase it here in SA, e.g. 2 kWh/person of electricity per day free) and simultaneous restructuring of the space economy, so that a gas tax, for example, doesn't nail the working poor who have been made to live progressively further away from jobs?

Cheers,
Patrick
