The revolutionary nature of Mr.
Nixon's current Great American
Revolution is even more
revolutionary than appeared at
first glance.
I)id you see his Economic Report
to Congress? Down in it he
suggests that polluters be licensed
in return for a fee.
"This charge would be suf
liciently high to encourage sub
stantial control of sulphur oxide
emissions (or whatever)," says
the report. "and the consequent
reductions of damage to health and
property should substantially
exceed the control costs."
Now this is certainly a
revolutionary concept. But why
limit it to pollution'? Properly
expanded, it could lead to a new
Federal Licensing Bureau, which
might even take in enough money
to balance the budget.
Scene: The new Federal
Licensing Bureau. A bored clerk is
approached by a middle-aged
applicant who looks nervous.
\I)ilicat: I'd like to apply for a
license to emit sulphur oxides. I
have this small backyard smelter
and...
Clerk: Okay. That'll be $10,000.
\ppiglicant: Did you say $10,000)?
That 's exor bitant.
4Ilerk: Look Mac. sulphur oxides
aggravate lung diseases, dissolve
nylon stockings, peel paint and
create killer fogs. The right to do
all that doesn't come cheap
\pp.glicanlt: I'm sorry, I didn't
realize...

lees that reduce damage to health
and property. Now if you want
something cheap. I can let you
heve a license good for tossing
three beer cans and a sandwich
wrapper out your car window.
That 's only ten bucks.
Aplerantll: Littering? I don't
know, there doesn't seem to be
much profit in it.
(Ie'rk: Ah. you're looking for a
prolit'? Cont identially, I think our
best buy is a Mugging License. It
entitles you to hit three old ladies
over the head in the park of your
choice and snatch their purses.
Mios t guys come out ahead on this
one.

is v0w. But it's a non-renewable,
non -transferable one-shot deal.
\plficant: I hate to risk that
kind of money.
..(lerk: Tell you what. Get a
group of your friends together and
take out a License to Riot. You can
burn and loot five stores in the
ghetto of your choice. The fee's
relatively low because it's part of
our Urban Renewal Program.
.\mlicant (appalled): What kind
of concept is that? It just means
the rich can get away with crimes
like poisoning people's lungs that
the poor can't afford to commit.
