I fucking love dwarves, I'm all for a dwarf tag.

I would guess it's because ending the carbon tax would end the payment people get paid from it. Majority of people profit from it.

I hadn't thought about that angle of it, thanks for the insight. Definitely feels like a valid concern.

Thanks for the heads up, I've got very loud spinners I wouldn't mind replacing.

Unless I'm missing something, it's been close to a century since a minority government made it the full 4 years. I suspect we'll see another election prematurely.

Exactly my thoughts, it'll only be effective if it's done properly. Otherwise it's just another half-measure that is more burden than benefit.

That said though, I wonder how much carbon/money rural heating oil specifically generated. It's possible this is just a drop in the bucket in the grand scheme and is an acceptable loss to help these folks out. Although I might prefer a bigger push to get people off heating oil altogether (which is where it's going to have to go eventually).

It's bots all the way down...

I joke but that reminds me of the Dead Internet Theory
