Dig deep and you will find the truth


Recommended Posts

I was doing some research on wood burning stoves and the recent trend in trying to ban them. I came across this article from March 2016 about stoves in Denmark:-

 

Taxing wood-burning stoves could save lives and money

 

When you try to tax something rather than ban it, surely that defeats the point? You tax things to raise money, you ban things to "protect the public". Obviously the 2016 attempt to tax stoves in Denmark did not work but I see they are trying again. Due to the Internet and free online speech, the real truth often follows the headlines.

 

Would the UK authorities be talking of banning stoves (next move is to tax them) if they were struggling to balance the government budget?
