If we replaced the corporate tax with a carbon tax, would conservatives support it?
Can we tax China?
I know you're being facetious, but...
We already tax China in the form of tariffs. In fact, China has invested so much more than the US into solar technology that the US Commerce Department decided to place tariffs on Chinese solar panels in 2013. China is dominating solar panel production, and now the US is paying for it. Furthermore, China has signed the Kyoto Protocol and is working with the EU on an economic agreement that would increase China's environmental standards.
Meanwhile, US politicians debate the reality of climate change.
