Does any of the climate change tax goes toward fighting birth certificates fraud?

They are making it into an exclusive rich only island chain.

When tourism tanks the locals will be looking to sell to the mega wealthy.

OB, Pensacola, Destin, 30A, and PCB all have better beaches. Hawaii is perhaps on par with Gulf Shores.


If your only metric is preferring dredged sand to create artificial white sand beaches, then sure. Outside of that, you’re insane to think that.

In case anyone cares to drop by the Hawaii Governor Josh Green's Facebook page and give him a little instant feedback on his new Green tax from the perspective of those who might have been previously considering an Hawaiian vacation, here's the link:

I’m glad that I went to Hawaii already. I won’t be going


Hawaii is fine and we enjoyed our 1st time there 6 years ago. Native Hawaiians are a proud people and have every right to be. Great culture

So many other options other than Hawaii that are just as beautiful and less expensive. They want the elites to live and vacation there. They will be happy to pay climate tax.

Hawaii is overrated. Won't be going going back

The bulk of the tourists are from Asia . I have no problem with them paying an extra 1% tariff , maybe we just call it a tax. Avoid the injunctions
