yes, thats why they call it a regressive tax

The car that Rebecca and I had had a 13 gallon tank.

boosting the price of a gallon of gas by a dollar is 15 bucks a week.

and we didn't drive -that- much, if you take a real family, with two vehicles both filling their gas tanks every week?

taxing gas by a dollar turns into a 100+ dollars a month.

yeah, and the rich that can afford to live in the city and walk or bike to work arent paying any of it lol

56.1m tonnes to export to other countries

per year

just agriculture

that is a decent graphic, but its not really showing me the method of export, truck or boat/plane whatever

@Bayesed and expand that, because gas taxes affect prices for goods, because it costs more to ship things.

ironically 23.6m tonnes of fossil fuels

per year.... exported

trucks planes boat or whatever all use fuel 😛

yeah, if youre a farmer and youre now spending more to drive your tractor/farm equipment its going to be rough until prices adjust

yep

and that is why people are setting fire to france.

You know, normally I find The Rebel kinda cringey, but when they're ripping apart something even cringier, it's pretty entertaining.

8k views with a million subscribers?

the most recent timcast video has that and its a couple of hours old, and he has 1/8 the subscribers

yeah, I don't know frankly how rebel keeps afloat

Soros funding t,

they are obviously reaching *some* people though

tm*

people show up to the live events and shit

I think they probably just don't get traction on youtube

perhaps people go to their website more

its just interesting to think people are actually going to the website in greater numbers than are interacting in youtube?

I honestly don't know

people show up to the events though

I've seen them

I've been interviewed by their contributors

I am

Disappointed

Wew

holy fuck, that is low

Where's Canada on that list I wonder

Britain in charge of medical knowledge

There’s no way that’s true.
