I suppose if we make the penalties against the western economies strong

That is really the issue - it's another attempt to redistribute income
only on an internationlist scale.
If that really is the issue, you are looking to blame the wrong
people. It isn't the environmentalists, it's the capitalists. If we
are buying all the out-sourced, pollution intensive products of the
eastern economies, who's pollution is it really? The Chinese, or
ours? Part of the "attractiveness" of out-sourcing is, in addition to
the dollar a day wages, companies don't have to put up with our pesky
pollution laws.
Or safety laws, or labor laws, or product integrity laws, or much of
anything else. I know it won't happen in my lifetime, but there will be
a serious revolution in the future, not to impose communism, but to
round up and slaughter all the multi-national "corporationists," and
those who believe in returning to the middle ages of serfdom.
You are a laugh a minute. You excoriate those who have the ideas and
capital to find markets, to create products which create jobs and give
your union pension funds someplace to invest. Do you really want to go
back to the pre-industrial revolutionary period?
