The Carbon Sense Coalition today claimed that the Australian Government’s $4 million carbon tax manifesto was a litany of lies in a bucketful of bribes.The Chairman of “Carbon Sense”, Mr Viv Forbes, said that the government advertising was so biased and deceptive that the government should conduct a referendum before introducing a carbon tax.
“If a referendum was held, the “No Carbon Tax” case would soon expose the lies in the current deceptive document.”
“The first lie is to claim that a tax on carbon dioxide will “cut pollution”. It is blatant false advertising to use “pollution” to describe a rare colourless non-toxic natural gas which is generated in the lungs of all animals and feeds all plants by fertilising the oceans and the atmosphere.
“It is another lie to claim that a carbon tax “will protect the economy”. The reverse is true. It will reduce the asset values, share prices, profits, dividends and growth of our biggest companies, destroy jobs and waste community savings on piddling power schemes like wind and solar energy.
“It is another lie to insinuate that a carbon tax will reduce “droughts, heat waves and bushfires”. Where is the evidence?
“Finally, it is electoral bribery to use carbon tax receipts to buy votes from pensioners, retirees, families, tax payers, carers, students and tenants. These bribes can never compensate for the job losses, reduction in retirement nest eggs, and increased living costs for everyone.
“The carbon tax manifesto is a dishonest document full of lies, deceptions and electoral corruption.”
Viv Forbes
Let us not forget, they have not supplied one iota of evidence that man made Climate Change is a reality, and when served with a Freedom of Information request claimed the original data that this is based on has been LOST???
Cost of living is going up every day in this country. And we are getting a carbon tax which is a scam to give more to the government that will keep on taking.And will get a lot higher most jobs go over seas so the companies can save their money, but I think should have a referendum on any taxes they want to pass.
