Why not let the real market decide rather than create a market that will be sure to be exploited and frauded.

Like any other free market enterprise that the govt feels that they have to stick their fingers into, it will turn into a disaster.

The only people that will pay is the poor as a percentage of their wage. The only people that will benefit are those that will suck the life out if those poor

So you propose an ETS? Great! That's what the Carbon Tax transitions to

Any govt created market is not a free market. Let the market create the market. The only reason for the govt created market has been the alarmists to "do something" before "Armageddon" or the alleged "tipping point" Most sane people recognize the bs behind this proposition

I find it interesting that all the Tony Abbott groupies seem to overlook that he was all for pricing carbon in the not too distant past and also that he states un-equivocally that climate change is real.

So , is he also a gullible extremist, or is he merely lying? After all, Windsor did state that he offered to do anything to become PM.
