Now they're going to introduce something called the carbon border adjustment mechanism, where they're going to tax imported goods that are made with dirtier energy to try and make them equivalent to our emission standards.

This is going to be

unbelievably inflationary.

And so if the economy isn't in the toilet already, it will be when this comes in.

Everything.

Clothes, steel, cars, concrete...

Wind turbines, solar panels, everything.

Excuse my language.

Are they mental?

Yes.

But this comes back to this.

How is it that you can have this widespread ideological failure, if you like?

But this has happened many times in history.

Look at the Reformation and the Spanish Inquisition, Rick.

You had a society then that believed that if you didn't follow the true faith and different people disagreed about what the true faith was, you would burn in hell for eternity.

Now, if that's your belief, then you can justify going to just about any length to try and convert somebody to what you think the true faith is.

You can justify any type of horrible torture to convert them, to save them from eternal damnation.

So now we would look back at things like the Spanish Inquisition, the English martyrs and all that stuff, and we'd say, that was ridiculous, that was horrific.

How could they crush people under doors that were loaded up with rocks just because they were Protestants instead of Catholics and vice versa?

Well, that was the reason why.
