announced on the news this morning is a proposal from some political greeny type F' WIT. to introduce a tax for people who have more than 2 children . as people breath out carbon dioxide . ( which causes global worming) over a life time a person creates 80 tonnes o0f carbon dioxide which this F' WIT claims is not good for our planet. he is proposing $5000 tax at birth of third child . and then $800 /yr thereafter.
THATS TAXING THE AIR WE BREATH. . i would really like to have some fun with this bloke . |

Global warming - a myth to make money by scaring people. And this just proves it.
I'm with Andrew Bolt on this one. http://blogs.news.com.au/heraldsun/andrewbolt/ |

there should be a tax on stupid ideas, every time you decide to open your mouth you sacrifice a testicle. more than 1 and you can no longer contribute to the gene pool.

reckon vegetarians will have to pay a salad tax for contributing to the lack of plants, resulting in less Oxygen and more CO2................

Can anyone drop this idiot's name?
By the way, if we find out who it is we should look into his activities since he was born. I would be surprised if he is less consumptive than everyone else!!.....I bet he doesn't wipe his bum with gum leaves and does drive a six cylinder car. Nick |

Gives new meaning the statement by Peter Costello a couple years back with the baby bonus stuff when the government was saying we needed to have more kids, "have one kid for mum, one kid for dad and one kid for the treasurer".

Yeah mate, the same thing happened in NZ too 7 or 8 yrs back. And they even went as far as trying to TAX cattle because of there carbon dioxide emmisions!. A couple of major protests put an end to that, but they were dead serious and it was the GREENIES over there causing it all too.

that idiot who proposed this... Dr. Egger!! who should have his degree in whatever the hell he has taken away from him and given a medal for idiot of the year. isn't the majority of our population above 30?? (i remember reading that somewhere) meaning that in the next 29years our population had quite a good chance of decreasing, not increasing? |
