Having businesses pay for pollution will collapse the economy. Businesses need free markets to be able to operate and continue producing goods that people can use. Otherwise, people won’t be able to get things they need, like food. Imagine, if all the truck companies paid a fee for all the carbon dioxide they release, then maybe food would be slowed down from being shipped up highway 5! We can’t afford to do that. Besides, people pollute too. If businesses pay for pollution, then people should too, and I’m not having my freedom limited in that way.
