This seems odd: The day before Australia's carbon dioxide tax starts, politicians aren't talking about the fabulous bad-weather-preventing benefits that it will bring?

Tax cuts tomorrow | Climate Nonconformist

Yeah, what else is happening, Swanny? I know there are some tax cuts, but what else? Hmmm. Were they reopening the Nauru detention centre? No, they’re still too proud for that. Was it a carbon tax? Oh, that’s right, the carbon dioxide tax starts tomorrow! Now, I thought this was an important step towards a clean energy future. Surely this is more important than simple tax cuts. Maybe Wayne’s a glass-half-full kind of guy, preferring to focus on that #cashforyou.

As I write this post, another one of those dreadful ‘household assistance package’ ads has come on. No mention of the carbon tax either. That’s because it’s as toxic as the alarmists make CO2 out to be.
