Global Warming And New Taxes

From this page:

Perhaps when global warming hits with full force, the folks in International Falls will only have to put up with temperatures 38 below zero. After those new taxes that Mr. Bloomberg wants to zap them with, we hope they have enough money left over to pay the heating bills.

Speaking of Bloomberg, I just noticed that Bloomberg's site came up as the #1 "sponsored link" on a Google search for "climate change" (when I repeated the search, other sites came up #1).

I noticed that one of the other sponsored links was for Orion Magazine, where you can find articles like this one.

Your friends fidget and avert their eyes, then change the subject. Recently, one staunch environmentalist acquaintance assumed I had to be talking about harnessing methane gas. Her line of inquiry might be more congruent with the times than mine, but I forge ahead.
