Climate Common Sense: Julia's Money Merry-Go-Round
The main thrust of the proposal seems to be redistribute income by jacking up taxes for the more affluent and redistribute to the lower paid. The coal mined and sent to our power stations and industry will be taxed while that sent to China will not , enabling us to send our manufacturing overseas to take advantage of resultant low energy costs.However the good news is that those losing their jobs will get a few dollars more in social security due to the carbon tax largesse.

Ten billion dollars is going to the green energy sector because no one with all their marbles would use their own money on something that does not work in practical terms so this was an obvious area for Gillard's involvement. One hundred billion is planned to go down this particular gurgler by 2050.
Of course no new coal power stations will now be built in Australia but we won't need them when all our industry is re-located to China where they are building them at an unbelievable rate.
EPA Gives Millions to Green Groups That Sue It; Massive Funding Advantage for Enviro Groups and Green Welfare
The EPA gives millions to the environmental groups that sue it. “When the EPA settles or loses those suits, it then awards the groups millions more in attorneys’ fees,” notes legal commentator Walter Olson. “‘The EPA isn’t harmed by these suits,’ said Jeffrey Holmstead, who was an EPA official during the Bush administration. ‘Often the suits involve things the EPA wants to do anyway. By inviting a lawsuit and then signing a consent decree, the agency gets legal cover from political heat.’ Holmstead called this kind of litigation ‘sweetheart suits.’”
