Down in Australia, part of what the carbon tax

really means:
Last week in Dubbo I met with a local refrigeration mechanic to discuss his concerns regarding the Carbon Tax. Many people would not be aware that refrigerant gases will be hit with the Carbon Tax.

The popular commercial refrigerant R404A, widely used in industrial and supermarket refrigeration, will increase from $92.99 per kilo to $377.71 per kilo following the implementation of the Carbon Tax. This is on top of a 20 per cent increase as of June 13, 2012.

Refrigerants Australia, the peak organisation representing Australian refrigerant suppliers and users, states that the price of refrigerants will increase by the order of 300 to 600 per cent.

Unfortunately for us we will be the ones copping this price increase.
How does that work? The government explains.
'Explain' meaning "Here's one of the many ways you're going to be screwed."


At the range today, I had a chance to try a S&W M&P 9mm, full-size. Not bad at all. I like, among other things, the way the backstrap changes to fit your hand. I decide to get a polymer, that'd definitely be on the list. Up near the top.


Also Down Under, a leftist advises of her approved censorship method.


I've been pissed at OG&E a few times, but when things have gone to hell their statement is generally "We're grabbing all the help we can and working fast as we can; we WILL get to you." If they'd ever said this:
He insisted that it was “not reasonable for a person to be upset at all” after seven days without lights or air conditioning.
they'd be lucky not to have people with ropes looking for them. There WOULD be people going to the Corporation Commission demanding defenestration of the idiot who made the comment. Or calling the company to say "I'm coming."
