For years — through many sessions of Congress — policymakers, researchers, environmentalists and energy companies have depicted the merits of instituting a carbon tax across the U.S. economy. Such a tax, which would assume a fee to carbon dioxide emissions because of their temperamental impact on the atmosphere and contributions to climate change, has long appealed to a diverse mix of people of varying political ideologies, from groups on both the political left and right. This annual appeal across party lines (of course, with many exceptions) mostly stems from the relative complexity, in principle, of a uniform tax, in contrast to the more administratively complicated policy of lowering emissions by putting caps on the amount of carbon dioxide that can be released. Some conservative economists, for example, are attracted to it because it does not necessarily require Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) involvement and could be used to onset and lower personal and corporate income taxes, possibly facilitating brighter tax reform.
