[ # ] Bold Environmental Legslation from Michigan’s John Dingell
August 18th, 2007 under Environment


The gas tax idea coming out of Michigan is interesting:

I’m changing the climate! Ask me how!

Michigan Democrat John Dingell, who chairs the House Energy and Commerce Committee, wants to cut greenhouse gas emissions by raising gasoline taxes by 50 cents per gallon and eliminating the mortgage interest tax deduction for homes 3,000 square feet and up.

We’d sure see a spike in 2,999 sq. ft. homes if the mortgage interest deduction elimination became law.

    Wow, that would fund some infrastructure and health care, wouldn’t it.
