		<description><![CDATA[The solution is a radical design of the tax system. We need a system which is simple, practical and deters only activities which society deems undesirable.

Ah....but there's the rub. What does society deem undesirable? Cigarettes? Alcohol? Marijuana? I suggest that the activity which is most undesirable yet prevalent is the emission of gases causing climate change.

Therefore, our tax system should be adjusted to place the majority burden of taxation on activities which emit CO2.

Commuters will scream: “but I need my car to get to work. How will I manage if my fuel bill is a thousand pounds a month?” - My repost would be: If income tax and National Insurance were abolished then you could afford to pay a thousand pounds for fuel......but you would have huge incentive to DO SOMETHING about climate change rather than talking about it.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=talkingbollocks.net&#038;blog=2000120&#038;post=4881&#038;subd=talkingbollocks&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[So why have a vision at all? We need a vision, not as a goal, but as a guide. If we develop a shared vision of how our civilisation could live in a sustainable way then we can start making intelligent and thoughtful decisions on working our way toward that vision. Without the vision we merely flounder around grasping at anything which is not responsible for the current disaster. Witness governments around the world turning on a sixpence and becoming sceptical about nuclear power.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=talkingbollocks.net&#038;blog=2000120&#038;post=3838&#038;subd=talkingbollocks&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Both China and the West have gained from the flow of trade but we should consider that, having now allowed so much industry to move to China, we have become reliant on an authoritarian regime which cares for nothing but perpetuating it's own existence. We should also keep this in mind when businessmen and political leaders talk of the necessity of allowing the free flow of trade to countries where there is “competitive advantage”. This competitive advantage is, very often, the absence of political rights,  civil rights and the rule of law.<img alt="" border="0" src="http://stats.wordpress.com/b.gif?host=talkingbollocks.net&#038;blog=2000120&#038;post=1818&#038;subd=talkingbollocks&#038;ref=&#038;feed=1" width="1" height="1" />]]></description>
