We’re living in a sit-com…EPA wants to tax cow farts

The American Farm Bureau Federation has registered its opposition to an Environmental Protection Agency proposal to regulate greenhouse gases under the Clean Air Act, asserting it would essentially result in new taxes on livestock operations.

The EPA proposal would establish a greenhouse gas “tax” of $87.50 on each head of beef cattle produced and $175 per head on each dairy animal and $20 for each hog.

Can it get any more absurd than this?
