    The *real* reason for Libya intervention (?)

    He sais that about Iraq, but Iraq may prove to have the largest oil reserves in the world, also they're profiteering like crazy of Afghanistan's poppy fields, whether they make money directly off opium+ heroin or not. Libya definitely has alot of oil ( 2nd highest I think) and that's one...

    The Carbon tax isn't necessarily bad, and the mining superprofits tax certainly wasn't.
