@skillsgaptrainer “Everyone should recognize Pierre Poilievre’s dedication and insight into the implications of carbon taxation. He has persistently opposed the carbon tax, recognizing deeper implications that many might overlook. Many did not realize the significance and full extent of the problem, but he did.
By having the ability to tax carbon, it’s conceivable that governments could extensively influence or alter the capitalist and investment-based society to something else. Essentially, carbon taxes could potentially restrict individuals from owning assets or making new investments. This strategy, which may not be immediately apparent even to skilled professionals like engineers or computer scientists, involves a level of complexity, obfuscation and secrecy strategy. SGT is impressed.
It aligns, perhaps, with the World Economic Forum’s notorious forecast: ‘you will own nothing, and you will be happy.’ This leads to speculation about how such a future might be achieved — possibly through central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), resetting the value of national currencies as they transition to CBDCs, or re-denominating national investments into new digital formats.
However, even these methods might not completely ensure that ‘you will own nothing’ as individuals could still possess digital currencies or CBDCs and hold digitalized assets that were re-denominated from stocks to new digital variants in the new digital CAD CBDC. The real essence of a plan to “end ownership” would be more effective to it’s mission statement, if it were to involve imposing taxes on any investment linked with carbon emissions during its creation or upkeep. This approach could drastically alter the landscape of investing and ownership, ostensibly under the pretext of promoting environmental sustainability.
The implications of such a strategy are vast: Cryptocurrencies consume electricity; automobiles depend on oil; gardens require water; meat production demands extensive resources; acquiring land necessitates environmental permits; houses must adopt green energy solutions and carbon is consumed yearly here; and supporting both the young and the elderly is viewed as carbon and resource-intensive. The extraction and processing of precious metals like silver and gold, which are great investments for 21st century investors, are energy-intensive activities that involve substantial carbon emissions, primarily due to the reliance on fossil fuels for mining operations, ore processing, and transportation.
Such stringent regulations could profoundly impact every aspect of personal and economic freedom, potentially labelling dissenters as extremists and deeply polarizing society. In short, taxing carbon provides the government with the capability to create a society of serfs, or a new type of neo-feudalism society or a communist like society.
Thanks Pierre for standing up for Canadian ideas and not international ones! We’re certain everyone is proud, and especially probably Danielle Smith! Don’t forget to look at our project page “Echoes of the Past: The Best of Two Worlds”, near the bottom, and the new “AI Safety Board”. Canada might need something like this in a few years. Later sk8ter.“
