Greg Lindsay, Centre for Independent Studies sinks deeper in Carbongate
In addition to the evidence that has rolled in from Japan, Europe, Britain and even within Australia of the disastrous impact of carbon taxes, which in Victoria led to the wide blackouts in summer that killed Victorians, we now have not only:
Study of the effects on employment of public aid to renewable energy sources, by G.C. Alvarez Phd., R.M. Jara, J.R.R. Julian, and J.I.G. Bielsa, Rey Juan University, 2009. 53 page report.
It can be anticipated more damning reports will roll in over the months ahead. The Spanish report alone flatly condemns each claim Greg Lindsay merely asserts - doesn’t bother attempting to justify and defend them, he merely asserts them. It is very important to note the Rudd Cabinet is using the same assertions to push its carbon tax. There’s more:
Arnold Schwarzenegger claims to be a Hayekian too. As the IPA and CIS, he’s heard of Hayek, he has like them, to be generous, seen the titles Road to Serfdom, Constitution of Liberty and stopped there. Schwarzenneger is far from being a free market Republican. Before Obama and the diseased Left Democrats were handed the keys to the White-house,
Schwarzenneger has done his bit. He has razed Californians with carbon taxes. Speaking against Obama’s villainous act of tyranny, the Waxman-Markey ‘cap and trade bill’, Republican Rep. Tom McClintock summarised the impact of Schwarzenneger’s carbon taxes and McClintock has a particular advantage, he is a House Representative from the state of California:
In addition to destruction of capital, and the flight of capital, McClintock attest to the contrary of what Lindsay also asserts:
Gov. Schwarzenegger assured us that AB 32 would mean an explosion of new, green jobs — exactly the same promises we’re hearing from cap and trade supporters. In California, exactly the opposite has happened. We have lost so many jobs the UC Santa Barbara economic forecast is now using the D-word — depression — to discuss California’s job market.
And this is what Greg Lindsay, the vested interests he is connected to, and Rudd,. Wong, Brown, Garrett, Turnbull and Greg Hunt want to do to Australians, wipe them out with carbon taxes and ‘alternative energy’. The difference between the Right and the diseased Left is the latter are motivated by their vile cult beliefs while the Right are motivated by their own wallets, they want to rich themsleves more by inflicting great pain and what promises to be irrecoverable long term economic damage. Let’s carbon taxes for what they are, deliberate economic sabotage on a tremendous scale backed on magical beliefs held by the fanatical Greens, propagated by their diseased Leftist allies and embraced by the kleptomaniacal, inbred, brain challenged Right.
The final abject act of Schwartzenneger was to betray the Republicans, attacking George Bush and expressing his full support for that treacherous Leftist thug called Obama. The CIS is in good company.
Obama, the only time he has told the truth, did declare the object is to destroy energy production, which means, as is occurring in California under a ham whose sobriquet takes on a certain twist, The Terminator, the destruction of the capital structure of the U.S. What was that you said, Professor Sinclair Davidson? Never mind, Professor, we have cause to return to you. Obama had an amendment attached to his carbon tax, a bit redundant in some respects but not in others, namely:
The amendment reinforces the totalitarian thrust of carbon taxation. It, moreover it is a measure the Brumby Cabinet of Victoria is working on - this is in addition to all the other ‘Kyoto compliance’ frauds he and Brumby before him dictated Victorians must waste money on when building new house, sending up the cost of house up by no trivial amount. The amendment is:
RUSH: Have you heard about this, folks? When you sell your house, environmental experts have to come in and do a survey to find out if you’ve got leaky windows, if all the environmental systems are correct, if you have relatively new appliances, and until you modernize in the way they say, you can’t sell — that’s in the bill. I’m not kidding, Brian. See, you can’t believe it. You can’t. It’s in the bill. It was in this amendment that Boehner (Republican) read [the bill in the House].
Arnie, diseased Leftist hugger and The Ratinator Terminator.
Greg Lindsay, through his monkey John Humphreys in asserting the anti-science and anti-economics lies, asserted carbon taxes are “as everyone knows the cheapest way” to effect compliance. It is lie. The Australian tax regime as it is, and by taxation I also include regulation, is very complex and very expensive to comply with and it is why companies have closed and transferred production to other countries. Keating and the ALP, Costello and the Right intensified and extended the tax regime that strangles companies to death. Wayne Swann and Rudd have multiplied new measures which will swallow many in a right tax compliance nightmare.
Forget capital theory, the Right are no more clued in as to what is involved in running enterprises in Australia. All the evidence to date indicates carbon taxes are a nightmare to comply with but this problem becomes hypothetical, since the destruction of capital means no-one has to worry about compliance.
Anyway, the Rush page contains links to other damning items. In the meantime, the scandal of a suppressed report is blowing up in Obama’s face. Here is the suppressed report:
Comments on Draft Technical Support Document for Endangerment Analysis for Greenhouse Gas Emissions under the Clean Air Act,
By Alan Carlin NCEE/OPEI March 2009.
The developments are related here:
RELEASED The censored EPA CO2 endangerment document – final report
EPA plays hide and seek; suppressed report revealed
Source inside EPA confirms claims of science being ignored, suppressed, by top EPA management
Fraud, and Lindsay and his chums see nothing wrong with its perpetration in order to perpetrate crimes on a tremendous scale, horrific crimes.
