According to Argus Media, the European Commission – that murder of career bureaucrats – has proposed exempting private jets and cargo flights, two of the most polluting forms of transportation, from the planned EU jet fuel tax. A draft indicates that the tax would be phased-in for passenger flights, including ones that carry cargo.

Sounds like the tax exemption should be named: “the Climate Conference Plutocrat Attendees Exemption”.
Of Course they are going to exempt their own from taxes.
The amazing part is how blatantly in your face they are becoming. Almost like they are a power unto themselves and no longer answer to the Proles.
White European pedestrian guy is the last to be paid attention to in the hierarchy of homo sapiens.
Animals have more rights and if you trespass it is you, not the animal.
Cargo aircraft too? Another gift to the richest man in the world?
Jeff Bezos at Amazon must be delighted with the brazen looting and violence in stores and shopping malls. It means more business for him.
But will all those package delivery trucks be safe from reparations in the future?
They used to let us eat cake. Now its bugs.
What happened to “buy local”? Ohhhhh yeahhhh … if we did that, the ChiComs and all of South America would go out of business …
Fighting climate change is the highest priority… after all the others
Pretty sure they could announce they will be going house to house collecting the right hands of all occupants and we would be waiting at the door to welcome them. My ancestors are weeping.
Right out of Animal Farm – “all animals are equal but some animals are more equal than others”
In reality they should be taxing private aircraft more heavily because large, full commercial aircrafts move more people per unit of fuel. In fact, just like gasoline engines, they should probably just ban the sale of all private aircraft by 2035. Plus mega yachts and mansions. You know…to be intellectually consistent, fair, egalitarian and to decrease inequality, progressive, woke, etc.
Your second point is completely irrelevant to the ruling class.
First point it is.
They know stuff and the rest does not.
They shouldn’t be taxing anything.
Keep that crap rolling it is the only way to smear everyone.
When will we peasants understand and accept this reality. It’s about, and for them, not about or for, us peasants. We don’t matter, and they no longer care that we know, that they think we don’t matter, because, well, to them, we don’t, so why should they care. They make all the rules, all we get to do, is to follow the rules that they decide and make, to benefit them, not us.
There are two classes of people, those who can afford private jets and those that cannot.
Personally, I would love a private jet and suffer no planetary remorse for it. After all, I would be IMPORTANT and require the luxuries that are denied the masses so I can best operate at 100% efficiency in the name of good regulation.
