Cap-and-trade returns: NY plans to force big oil to ‘invest’ in ‘green’ by paying for emissions
In her State of the State address, New York Gov. Kathy Hochul is expected to propose a cap-and-invest program for energy producers that emit pollution.
I’m so glad I left NY.
Here’s a thought:
What if the major oil producers in America decided that, due to the irrationality of NY State government, they would no longer do business in NY?
Of course, they won’t be paying this emission tax anyway. As is always the case, they will instead pass the added costs of doing business in NY to the local gas stations (etc). And that will be covered by the end users, the drivers on the roadways of the State.
It’s a highly regressive additional tax on NY residents. And the cynical NY government knows this, full well.
