What I'm getting at Ustwo is that things like respiratory disease, that has been increasing due to poor air quality, are being paid for by individuals rather than the company that is causing the pollution.
I'm not talking about Global Warming per se, rather pollution in general. You cannot dispute the fact that pollution is on the rise. That smog is an issue.
Why should someone who does not drive a car pay for harm done to them by industry and car drivers? As it is, the price of energy is subsidized because it does not include the negative externalities associated with things like pollution.
