Unless the CBA shows an offset by even greater cost or risk; which in this case it does. As we speak actuaries are pricing GW into insurance costs; call that a "tax" if you like. If you live in flood, hurricaine, or tornado zones your costs have gone up because of it. Fiscal conservatives plan for, and account for, risk. Liberals ignore it. For example, do you have home owner's insurance? Why? Do you KNOW that your house will be destroyed by an out of control dump truck? No. So why have it? Because there's a *risk* that it might be and the costs of bearing that risk warrant the expense. A carbon tax is not a tax - it's insurance. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Get involved in the latest ColdFusion discussions, product development sharing, and articles on the Adobe Labs wiki. http://labs/adobe.com/wiki/index.php/ColdFusion_8 Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/message.cfm/messageid:239971 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/CF-Community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
