Wait till we attempt to reform the tax code again. EVERYONE will be screaming. Flat tax anyone?

Oh sure, that would be really fair - not.

But there is a big problem in helping the greening. It's all about costs. I could write a few pages, but it ends up cost/benifit. God help the poor. And while I believe many rank and file 'greenies' truly mean well the power elite is happy to take that power and use it as they see fit. It's a sticky wicket. Did someone say, what about space colonisation?

Tell me about it, we have planted close to 100 trees to cut down our carbon footprint, if only the *&^%$ white tailed lawn rats would stop destroying them. Thirty dollares for a tree and $25 for tree guards to keep the deer at bay

It is the only sustainable way...
