By creating an inflationary regime via policy (I blame Biden and his Socialist/Communist minions for this problem), the Fed’s predictable response is to start raising interest rates – a major factor for just about every small business.
The Transportation Climate Initiative (TCI) is just another money-laundering scheme to funnel your cash into state coffers while freeing local politicians from having to take the blame for its very real impact on your day-to-day life.
There is no one, no one group or even “groups of groups” that could effectively handle the billions of economic decisions that are made daily (or even hourly) by the 320 million residents of America.
The folks who pushed, promoted, and signed on to the Transportation Climate Initiative (TCI) are so cute. They keep insisting that this is about saving the planet. We’ll reduce emissions. Gaia will love us. Sorry, as with all such schemes, the goal is to milk the sick cow for a few more bucks before it … Read more
Much like the New Hampshire Democrat desire to cram a 12% tax increase on small business owners in the Granite State (after demanding they close shop), a few movers and shakers behind a regional gas tax hike known as TCI don’t want to wait either.
The latest media broadside on the terrible awful massive gas tax hike calling itself a “Climate Initiative” is labeling it a “once in a generation opportunity.” To what, kill jobs, and screw the heck out of low-income people and participating state economies? No, silly.
There are plenty of reasons to prevent elected officials from handing off taxing powers to unelected bureaucrats. But that’s what the Proposed Transportation Climate Initiative does. A Tax on motor fuels whose estimated hike, according to new research will be much higher than advertised.
The Transportation Climate Initiative (TCI) is a regional gas tax set by unelected bureaucrats. It claims that killing local economies and pinching pocketbooks to fund more failed government interventions will reduce emissions. I have a better idea.
The Transportation Climate Initiative is like a pretty girl who suddenly can’t get a date. Or a pretty boy, or boy-girl, or girl boy, genderless penguin, Trans-Whale Horseshoe crab, or whatever. Sold as the darling of the ball TCI finds itself facing rejected yet again.
TCI, the Transportation Climate Initiative, has taken some body blows of late. But it’s still upright and in need of a knockout punch. A good blow to the jaw, which this recent letter by the Heartland Institute may help deliver.
We won’t take credit for much but when the Transportation Climate Initiate reared its ugly head, we took a baseball bat to it. New Hampshire Dems wanted it, and are prepared to change State law so we can get it. We took them and it to the rhetorical woodshed.
As Skip noted earlier today, we’ve got a lot of coverage on the proposed Transportation Climate Initiative. Summed up, “It’s a Trap.” An abrogation of taxing power and electoral accountability to distant climate ministers you cannot vote out of office. But we have good news. Gov. Chris Sununu says, no way.
Steve has been all over this topic of having yet another gas tax applied to NH residents – this time, like the tax on our electricity (e.g., RGGI), it will be raised by out of state entities:
“The question we ask today is not whether our government is too big or too small,but whether it works — whether it helps families find jobs at a decent wage, care they can afford, a retirement that is dignified.” – President Obama, Inauguration (2009) Yes, all the dirt about a person gets thrown up during … Read more
So many false claims have been made for Obamacare that I did some research about medically caused bankruptcies. What I found indicates that Obamacare will probably INCREASE, not decrease, medically caused bankruptcies. “Bankruptcy facts”: “63% of filers blamed credit card bills. 50% blamed mismanagement. 37% blamed pay cuts or job loss, and 28% blamed medical … Read more

I have tried to be respectful as I have been critical of Joe Biden and his Administration, but he has not earned that respect. It is time to call a spade a spade and be blatantly honest about the damage this feeble man and his crew have done to America and Americans.
Stay Safe by Michael Lacoy is set in the make-believe town of Beauville, New Hampshire, and features characters who fit into any number of pandemic archetypes. You’ll recognize them and associate them with people and behaviors experienced after the world was turned upside down in the spring of 2020.
First question: Why do we even have a Climate Council at this point? Why have we ever had one? All these twenty-three (twenty-two, really, because the corrupt Speaker of the House has refused for over a year to appoint a representative from the Fuel Dealers as required by law) unelected, self-important bloviators do is sit … Read more
