Gore’s Energy Message

“We should tax what we burn, not what we earn.”

Al Gore is calling for Americans to end our reliance on fossil fuels and embrace greener sources of energy. His plan would include taxes on carbon dioxide production which he refers to in this sentence. Gore spoke at an energy conference today saying our future is at stake.

Gore is using his unique position for the greater good. By being so knowledgeable about energy and by speaking out, I’m sure he’ll have more influence on our country than he would have as president. Being independent has the advantage of saying the words he needs to say without worrying about the political impact. Let’s listen.
