‪CA Proposes a Carbon Tax to Replace Sales Tax‬

Spread the love

California lawmakers are proposing replacing California’s sales tax with a “carbon tax” based on the “carbon intensity” of specific products. The bill, SB 43 by Sen. Ben Allen (D-Santa Monica) would require the State Air Resources Board, in consultation with the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration, to submit a report to the Legislature on the results of a study, to propose and to determine the feasibility and practicality of, a system to replace the tax imposed pursuant to the Sales and Use Tax Law with an assessment on retail products sold or used in the state based on the carbon intensity of the product to encourage the use of less carbon-intensive products.

“The goal is to use higher prices to influence Californians to purchase products in a way that is supposed to help reduce climate change,” reportedSarah Boot at the Cal Chamber.

CARB has long wished for a carbon tax, but the United States Commerce Clause always got in the way. The Commerce Clause limits a state’s ability to tax out-of-state persons, and mandates that Congress shall have the power to regulate interstate commerce. Because the power to regulate interstate commerce is granted to Congress, states may not enact laws that discriminate against or substantially interfere with interstate commerce.

Additionally, the dormant Commerce Clause, which says states may not enact laws that discriminate against or substantially interfere with interstate commerce, prevents a state from imposing border tax adjustments as part of its carbon tax. This is something the CARB has been working to find a way around. Several studies such as State-Level Carbon Taxes and the Dormant Commerce Clause: Can Formulary Apportionment Save the World? have been published on the CARB website to address ways to accomplish a carbon tax.

Sarah Boot, whose area of expertise at the Cal Chamber is Privacy and Tax, asks some pertinent questions:

• Who within CARB or the CDTFA will determine the “carbon intensity” of every single product sold or used in California?  Would it be a team of scientists?  Would companies around the country and the world have to send the CDTFA some sort of form assessing the “carbon intensity” of every single one of their products sold in California?  How will the CDTFA verify the accuracy of such information?  How will they enforce this new requirement here in California when so many products come from out of state or from another country?

• Assuming they can do this, how will they convey the specific carbon sales tax for every single product to retailers in this state?  Could they assign the different rates of carbon sales taxes to categories of products?  Or would this be unfair because two companies could produce the same type of product with significantly different carbon intensities?

• What will be included in the determination of “carbon intensity”?   Some of the factors contributing to “carbon intensity” can include the amount of fuel combusted, the number of animals used, certain industrial processes, and distances traveled.  What else?

• What will be the impact of assessing a carbon sales tax based – in part – on how far a product must travel to get to our state?  If the same company produces a product in two different states, one closer to California than the other, will that same product from the same company have two different prices?    Will the distance to each local jurisdiction in our large state be part of the “carbon intensity” measurement?  For example, if a product is manufactured in Oregon and sold in San Diego, will it have a different “carbon intensity” measurement than the same product sold in Sacramento?

• How will the carbon sales tax impact lower income Californians?  Will there be some Californians who don’t have many options when trying to buy products with a lower “carbon intensity?”  Will it impact their ability to buy meat and dairy products, including milk and formula?  Will it increase the cost of their utilities and driving?  Will their cost of living go up?

• Per SB 43, the carbon sales tax has a goal of revenue neutrality.  Yet, if the carbon sales tax is successful at getting consumers to stop purchasing products with higher carbon emissions, via their higher tax rates, wouldn’t revenue ultimately be diminished?

• California’s sales and use tax is one of the state’s most stable forms of revenue.  How would a carbon sales tax impact budget volatility?

SB 43 will require the California Air Resources Board and the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration, to submit a report to the legislature by 2021.

The Carbon Tax Center reports on carbon taxes that have been enacted or proposed around the world, including in:

  • United Kingdom
  • Ireland
  • Australia
  • Chile
  • Sweden
  • Other Nations (including Finland, Great Britain, and New Zealand)

A great deal of pressure is being applied on the United States to join in, but so far, President Donald Trump’s administration has been resistant. California, on the other hand, has taken a go-it-alone approach under former Governor Jerry Brown, partnering with Oregon, Washington and British Columbia forming an illegal compact when they signed the Pacific Coast Action Plan on Climate and Energy, “to align climate change policies and promote clean energy.”

Border Patrol Official: Issues Won't Improve Without Govt Action

The border situation will not come under control unless government officials take action to bring the nation's immigration laws under control, National Border Patrol Council Brandon Judd said Tuesday.

"This is a dream come true for organized crime for the criminal cartels," Judd told Fox News' "America's Newsroom."

"What they're able to do is able to distract us, push these individuals across, take our resources out of the field, and tie up our hands in order to create these gaps in the border so they can push their higher value products across the border."

If officials do not get control of the border, he warned, "we're going to continue to see more fentanyl, more deaths in the United States. We have to control the border, and these migrants are being used as pawns. That's the reason why this is so important."

But the government could stop such actions, said Judd.

"It isn't rocket science," said Judd. "All we have to do is put more resources on the border. We need to get behind those individuals who actually want to secure the border."

The simple threat alone that people would be held in custody pending deportation proceedings was enough to drop numbers exponentially before, but numbers have gone up because "everybody knows that they can continue to exploit our loopholes," said Judd. "The catch and release program continues and while that continues that will be the magnet that draws these individuals here."

Turkey slams French decision to mark Armenian genocide

Turkey's foreign minister has criticized a French decision to mark April 24 as a day of commemoration of the Armenian genocide, saying France should "look at its own dark history."

Mevlut Cavusoglu made the comments Friday during a tense exchange of words with a French parliamentarian at a NATO meeting in Turkey, a day after French President Emmanuel Macron's decision was inscribed in France's official journal.

Many historians regard the mass killings of Armenians under the Ottoman Empire a century ago the first genocide of the 20th century. Turkey rejects the term genocide, contending that those who died were victims of civil war.

Cavusoglu said: "France is the last country to teach Turkey a lesson on genocide and history. We haven't forgotten what happened in Rwanda and Algeria."

Schumer Wants to Rename Senate Building After McCain

Amid President Donald Trump's renewed criticisms of the late Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz., for leaking the Dems' dossier, Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., is vowing to rename Russell Senate Office building after the late senator.

"I look forward to soon re-introducing my legislation re-naming the Senate Russell Building after American hero, Senator John McCain," Sen. Schumer tweeted Wednesday.

President Trump infamously ripped Sen. McCain for claiming to be a war hero because he was captured. Also, the president is still seething over McCain casting the deciding vote to sink the GOP's plans to repeal and replace Obamacare.

It was McCain's last major vote as a senator before he succumbed to glioblastoma, an aggressive form of brain cancer.

The renewal of President Trump's longtime rivalry with the deceased senator comes after court documents revealed it was McCain who leaked the Democratic National Committee funding dossier in an effort to meddle in the 2016 presidential election against his heated rival – even though the were in the same party.

Trump reiterated this week: "I was never a fan of John McCain, and I never will be."

The Senate Russell Office building is named after former Sen. Richard Brevard Russell, D-Ga., and has been controversial because of his opposition to civil rights legislation, according to The Hill.

Dissident group accused of North Korean embassy intrusion suspends operations

March 28, 2019

SEOUL (Reuters) – A dissident group accused of breaking into North Korea’s embassy in Madrid said on Thursday it was temporarily suspending operations, after a Spanish judge issued international arrest warrants for two suspected intruders now believed to be in the United States.

A shadowy group called Cheollima Civil Defense, also known as Free Joseon, acknowledged on its website late on Tuesday that it was behind the incident but said it was not an attack and that the group had been invited into the embassy.

In a statement on its website on Thursday, Cheollima Civil Defense said that while it has “bigger tasks ahead,” it had temporarily suspended work because of “speculative” media reports.

“We ask the media to restrain itself in its interest in our organization and its members,” the statement said, noting that the group’s membership includes North Korean refugees, but that it had not recently contacted defectors living in South Korea.

A judicial source said on Wednesday that warrants were issued for the group’s alleged leader and another suspect after an investigation by a Spanish court found that they broke into the embassy, tried to persuade an official to defect and then stole computer equipment.

The suspected leader has been identified by the court in an official document as Adrian Hong Chang, a Mexican citizen who is a U.S. resident.

The other suspect sought in the arrest warrant is Sam Ryu, who is a U.S. citizen of Korean descent.

According to the court’s official document, which was made public on Tuesday, Hong Chang is believed to have traveled to the United States a day after the raid and contacted the Federal Bureau of Investigation to pass on information about it.

It was unclear how the court knew that the man had contacted the FBI, which said on Tuesday it is “our standard practice to neither confirm nor deny the existence of an investigation.”

An authoritative U.S. government source said on Wednesday that the FBI received the names of the alleged embassy intruders from Spanish investigators and was looking into the matter at the request of Spanish authorities.

Other Spanish judicial sources told Reuters the two arrest warrants are likely to be the first of several as there were believed to have been ten intruders.

The other suspects include South Korean citizens.

Lee Wolosky, an American attorney who represents Cheollima Civil Defense, said in a statement on Wednesday that the Spanish court “purported to reach conclusions without any input from representatives” of the group.

He said it was irresponsible of the court “to disclose publicly the names of people who are working in opposition to a brutal regime that routinely and summarily executes its enemies.”

The U.S. State Department has said the U.S. government was not involved in the raid and did not immediately respond to a request for comment on the Spanish arrest warrants.

Three of the intruders took an embassy official into the basement and tried to convince him to defect. They identified themselves as members of a group who campaigned for the “liberation of North Korea”, the Spanish court document said.

The document gave a detailed account of the intruders’ movements before as well as during the intrusion, including their stay in a hotel and purchases of knives, balaclava masks and fake guns.

The embassy raid occurred shortly before the Feb. 27-28 summit between North Korean leader Kim Jong Un and U.S. President Donald Trump in Hanoi.

The group kept embassy staff tied up for several hours and then searched the premises for arms before leaving, at which point they separated into four groups and headed to Portugal, the document alleged.

Hong Chang then flew from Lisbon to New York. His current whereabouts was unknown, the document said.

In Spain the High Court has the power to investigate criminal offences, after which formal accusations are launched.

Poland’s striking teachers warn high-school exams threatened

The union leader of Poland's striking teachers says that key high-school graduation exams next month could be cancelled if government does not respond to pay demands.

Slawomir Broniarz warned that the exams, scheduled for May, may not happen because the strike may prevent the qualification procedure.

On Friday, teachers were on strike for the fifth day in a row as part of an indefinite action related to their 30% pay demand. The government is urging the strikers to accept an offer of half that amount.

Friday was the last day of middle school exams, which were held in spite of the strike action. On Monday, primary school exams begin.

Teachers' monthly earnings range from 1,800 zlotys to 3,000 zlotys ($470 to $780).

MONTREAL/OTTAWA (Reuters) – Rising waters were prompting further evacuations in central Canada on Thursday, with the mayor of the country’s capital, Ottawa, declaring a state of emergency and Quebec authorities warning that a hydroelectric dam was at risk of breaking.

Ottawa Mayor Jim Watson declared the emergency in response to rising water levels along the Ottawa River and weather forecasts that called for significant rainfall on Friday.

In a statement on Twitter, Watson asked for help from the Ontario provincial government and the country’s military.

He warned that “flood levels are currently forecasted to exceed the levels that caused significant damage to numerous properties in the city of Ottawa in 2017.”

Spring flooding had killed one person and forced more than 900 people from their homes in Canada’s Quebec province as of 1 p.m. on Thursday, according to a government website.

Ottawa has received 80 requests for service related to potential flooding such as sandbagging, a city spokeswoman said.

The prospect of more rain over the next 24 to 48 hours triggered concerns on Thursday that the hydroelectric dam at Bell Falls in the western part of Quebec could be at risk of failing because of rising water levels.

Quebec’s provincial police said 250 people were protectively removed from homes in the area as of late afternoon in case the dam on the Rouge River breaks.

The dam is now at its full flow capacity of 980 cubic meters per second of water, said Francis Labbé, a spokesman for the province’s state-owned utility, Hydro Quebec. He said Hydro Quebec expected the flow could rise to 1,200 cubic meters per second of water over the next two days.

“We have to take the worst-case scenario into consideration, since we`re already at the maximum capacity,” Labbé said by phone.

The dam is part of a power station that no longer produces electricity, but is regularly inspected by Hydro Quebec, he said.

April 26, 2019

BELFAST (Reuters) – Detectives investigating the murder of journalist Lyra McKee in Northern Ireland last week suspect the gunman who shot her dead is in his late teens as they made a further appeal to the local community who they believe know his identity.

McKee’s killing by an Irish nationalist militant during a riot in Londonderry has sparked outrage in the province where a 1998 peace deal mostly ended three decades of sectarian violence that cost the lives of some 3,600 people.

The New IRA, one of a small number of groups that oppose the peace accord, has said one of its members shot the 29-year-old reporter dead in the Creggan area of the city on Thursday when opening fire on police during a riot McKee was watching.

The killing, which followed a large car bomb in Londonderry in January that police also blamed on the New IRA, has raised fears that small marginalized militant groups are exploiting a political vacuum in the province and tensions caused by Britain’s decision to leave the European Union.

Police released footage on Friday of immediately before and after the shooting showing three men who were involved in the rioting and identified one as the gunman who they believe is in his late teens. 

“I believe that the information that can help us to bring those responsible for her murder to justice lies within the community. I need the public to tell me who he is,” Detective Superintendent Jason Murphy told reporters.

Murphy said those involved in the disorder on the night were teenagers or in their early 20s, and that about 100 people were on the ground watching the trouble as it unfolded.

He added that police believed the gun used in the attack was of a similar caliber to those used before in paramilitary type attacks in Creggan. 

“I recognize that people living in Creagan may find it’s difficult to come forward to speak to police. Today, I want to provide a personal reassurance that we are able to deal with those issues sensitively,” Murphy said, echoing similar appeals in recent days.

(Reuters) – U.S. stock index futures were flat on Friday, as investors paused ahead of GDP data, which is expected to show the world’s largest economy maintained a moderate pace of growth in the first quarter.

Gross domestic product probably increased at a 2% annualized rate in the quarter as a burst in exports, strong inventory stockpiling and government investment in public construction projects offset a slowdown in consumer and business spending, according to a Reuters survey of economists.

The Commerce Department report will be published at 8:30 a.m. ET.

The GDP data comes as investors look for fresh catalysts to push the markets higher. The S&P 500 index is about 0.5% below its record high hit in late September, after surging nearly 17% this year.

First-quarter earnings have been largely upbeat, with nearly 78% of the 178 companies that have reported so far surpassing earnings estimates, according to Refinitiv data.

Wall Street now expects S&P 500 earnings to be in line with the year-ago quarter, a sharp improvement from the 2.3% fall expected at the start of April.

Amazon.com Inc rose 0.9% in premarket trading after the e-commerce giant reported quarterly profit that doubled and beat estimates on soaring demand for its cloud and ad services.

Ford Motor Co shares surged 8.5% after the automaker posted better-than-expected first-quarter earnings largely due to strong pickup truck sales in its core U.S. market.

Mattel Inc jumped 8% after the toymaker beat analysts’ estimates for quarterly revenue, as a more diverse range of Barbie dolls powered sales in the United States.

At 6:52 a.m. ET, Dow e-minis were down 35 points, or 0.13%. S&P 500 e-minis were down 1.5 points, or 0.05% and Nasdaq 100 e-minis were up 10.75 points, or 0.14%.

Among decliners, Intel Corp slumped 7.7% after it cut its full-year revenue forecast and missed quarterly sales estimate for its key data center business.

Rival Advanced Micro Devices declined 0.8%.

Oil majors Exxon Mobil Corp and Chevron Corp are expected to report results later in the day.

WARSAW (Reuters) – Germany could owe Poland more than $850 billion in reparations for damages it incurred during World War Two and the brutal Nazi occupation, a senior ruling party lawmaker said.

Some six million Poles, including three million Polish Jews, were killed during the war and Warsaw was razed to the ground following a 1944 uprising in which about 200,000 civilians died.

Germany, one of Poland’s biggest trade partners and a fellow member of the European Union and NATO, says all financial claims linked to World War Two have been settled.

The right-wing Law and Justice (PiS) has revived calls for compensation since it took power in 2015 and has made the promotion of Poland’s wartime victimhood a central plank of its appeal to nationalism.

PiS has yet to make an official demand for reparations but its combative stance towards Germany has strained relations.

“Poland lost not only millions of its citizens but it was also destroyed in an unusually brutal way,” Arkadiusz Mularczyk, who heads the Polish parliamentary committee on reparations, told Reuters in an interview.

“Many (victims) are still alive and feel deeply wronged.”

His comments come a month before European Parliament elections in which populist and nationalist parties are expected to do well. Poland will also hold national elections later this year, with PiS still well ahead of its rivals in opinion polls.

EU LARGESSE

Mularczyk said the reparations figure could amount to more than 10 times the estimated 100 billion euros ($111 billion) that Poland has received so far in European Union funds since it joined the bloc in 2004.

Germany is the biggest net donor to the EU budget and some Germans regard its contributions as generous compensation to recipient countries like Poland which suffered under Nazi rule.

In 1953 Poland’s then-communist rulers relinquished all claims to war reparations under pressure from the Soviet Union, which wanted to free East Germany, also a Soviet satellite, from any liabilities. PiS says that agreement is invalid because Poland was unable to negotiate fair compensation.

Mularczyk said his committee hoped to complete its report on the reparations issue by Sept. 1, the 80th anniversary of Hitler’s invasion.

Accusing Berlin of playing “diplomatic games” over the issue, he said: “The matter is being swept under the rug (by Germany) … until it’ll be wiped from the memory, from people’s awareness.”

His comments come after the Greek parliament voted this month to seek billions of euros in German reparations for the Nazi occupation of their country.

WASHINGTON (Reuters) – U.S. President Donald Trump on Friday said the United States did not pay any money to North Korea as it sought the release of comatose American student Otto Warmbier.

The Washington Post reported on Thursday that Trump had approved payment of a $2 million bill from North Korea to cover its care of the college student, who died shortly after he was returned to the United States after 17 months in a North Korean prison.
