Some Establishment Republicans Support Carbon Taxes

This article describes the carbon tax proposal recently published in the WSJ.  It was written by two Republican's who represent the old GOP establishment.  It is also getting attention from some conservative think tanks.  It will be resisted, however, by Tea Party populists.  They don't believe in climate change, and they oppose any form of taxation.  It is part of their religious fundamentalism to be against anything that smells like a liberal proposal.
