may be next. The foreign minister of Denmark, Lars Locke, boasts, "We are investing billions in this transition..." blah, blah, blah. Sounds like he's angling for a Nobel Prize.
The irony is that the Danish are major exports of beef - so this will do wonders for their economy.
CNN says that the global food system contributes one-third of the greenhouse gasses emitted into the atmosphere.
Our prediction is that within the next 18 months, some members of Congress (AOC?) will propose a similar tax here.
We long for the simpler days when the environmental movement was about saving the whales and other animals not killing them off.
In the meantime, anyone up for a veggie burger?
5) Supreme Court FINALLY Shackles the Unconstitutional Regulatory State
On a 6-3 decision, the Supreme Court finally confirmed in Friday's Chevron decision that there are THREE branches of government - not four.
The Supreme Court made a tragic mistake in 1984 in the original Chevron case. It ruled federal judges must defer to a regulatory agency's interpretations of federal laws in most cases. This had delegated to unelected officials at the dozens of ABC regulatory agencies - from the FDA to FDIC to FTC to CFTC to the EPA - unilateral power to make laws, interpret laws, and enforce laws. (They have their own courts, which the Supreme Court said in another case last week violates the right to trial by jury.)
No wonder the regulatory octopus has entangled its tentacles
