It's come to this: warmist Tom Friedman argues for increased gas tax, but fails to even mention the global warming hoax

If Not Now, When? - NYTimes.com
The smart thing for us to do right now is to impose a $1-a-gallon gasoline tax, to be phased in at 5 cents a month beginning in 2012, with all the money going to pay down the deficit.
DIE WELT: “Certainly: Global Warming Stopped”
Who knows! Maybe parts of the German media are beginning to see the the big block-letter writing on the wall and are now slowly taking baby-steps towards acknowledging the claims and science behind catastrophic global warming are not all what they are cracked up to be.

Maybe the far-fetched, cockamamie explanations on why all the cold is caused by warming has led the less zealous among the media to reconsider the science. Maybe all the phony predictions that keep turning out to be wrong are finally raising suspicions.
Chris Mooney | The Strange Case of Ralph Hall
Recently, amid the flurry of budgetary cuts introduced by House Republicans, Hall sponsored an amendment (which passed 233 to 187) to block the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration's attempt to create a national Climate Service—an initiative that would greatly aid states and districts like Hall’s in preparing for the serious impacts of climate change. The Climate Service is designed to "provide a one stop shop for users across the nation in much the same way NOAA’s National Weather Service has been providing weather information and services for 140 years." To this end, among other tasks the service will create "products and decision support tools that are relevant and useful to equip policy makers, business leaders, local governments and other decision-makers to plan for a changing climate."

"With one little gasoline tax, we can make ourselves more economically and strategically secure, help sell more Chevy Volts..."

Friedman lives in another world one of elitists who don't realize or don't care what this will do to the regular person. It isn't just the gas price, but the price of EVERYTHING will go up as a result. He continues to get more and more disgusting in his views.
