The rewards are not fully opt in. If you choose not to use them, you opt into higher prices at merchants regardless. If you opt in, you are at least compensated from the pricing mess credit has created.

Itâ€(TM)â€(TM)s only alarmist if itâ€(TM)s false. We have a thin dome of atmosphere we can play around with, and we have. All of the evidence points to man made greenhouse gases warming the surface. Whatâ€(TM)s your evidence?

There are many â€oecreative†jobs that are more akin to a low paid tech doing planned work. Not every artwork requires a master artist.

Or the people benefiting most from it will never let it die.

If it cost $10,000/year to survive, and you make $15,000/yr, then a 40% tax leaves you with $3,000 in your pocket.

If you make $1,000,000 per year, that tax rate won't cause you to starve, it may take a Porsche away though.
