20%
Yes
80%
No
this is a round about way to raise money.there is no alternative from carbon based fuels.. the infrastructure for electricity will not handle all the power needed.
ReplyBecause this state is already taxing everyone to the extent that no one can afford to live here.
ReplyEvery night I turn on the news to see the state proposing another way to tax, or raise the taxes paid by the citizens. At what point does paying taxes become theft by government decree?
ReplyWhen the Pot growers keep pumping CO2 into their plants to grow them bigger and faster don't expect me to pay high prices so they can have their munchies.
ReplyCarbon emissions is not the problem in our environment and no amount of this foolishness will make any difference.
ReplyIt wouldn't make a difference in the global picture, just more $ out of my pocket
ReplyOregon is already one of the most "green" states in the U.S. and we pay for it.
ReplyIt's just going to cause more homeless because so many are struggling now. I pay enough tax now .it's just another way to go thru the "backdoor"of sales tax!!!!
ReplyNo, it's just another tax with no applied results. Meant to go to the Congress coffers for mismanagement.
ReplyHow exactly is that going to cut CO2 emissions? People still need to eat and go to work. Do we not remember 2008 when gas was $5 a gallon and a recession hit?
ReplyThis is a joke right? How stupid do you think we are? Do you forget that tree's breathe co2, and expel oxygen, or did common core remove that truth from its curriculum too?
ReplyNo. Imposing expensive policies on the basis of a currently fashion theory that a few decades hence will seem as silly as is now the case with eugenics, bleeding etc., is absurd.
ReplyThis makes the social justice warriors and those thinking they are saving the world feel warm and fuzzy. Just another tax. Smoke and mirrors from the left.
ReplyIt won't make one bit of difference now for us to be paying higher prices, for what>?
ReplyPenalize the companies, not consumers. Hold them accountable for their practices, and get them to change how they operate.
ReplyOregon taxpayers are in trouble. Brown and liberal legislators are looking to raise taxes over 2 Billion dollars, increase big government, and add bad business regulations.
ReplySpot on....you have their number. Can no one else see how they try to raise taxes without us knowing???
I have asthma now and never did before. I'd like to see action now. Why wait to save future generations.
ReplyBecause global warming (polarizing of weather patterns) is real.
ReplyPay a little now or a "lot" later. Plus it has to get started now to have a better chance ofhelping decrease global warming.
