Carbon Tax and Dividend Act

by TribalRightsNow8d ago40Editing locked

This legislation imposes a $50/ton tax on carbon dioxide emissions at the point of extraction or import, increasing by $10/ton annually. All revenue is returned to American households as equal quarterly dividends. A carbon border adjustment prevents offshoring of emissions.

This needs a sunset clause. Pass it as a 5-year pilot and evaluate results before making it permanent.

Has anyone estimated the actual cost? I want to support it but we need concrete numbers.

Mixed feelings. The goal is right but there are simpler ways to achieve the same outcome with less bureaucracy.
