If you're legitimately interested I can provide a host of different well researched material on the relatively small economic effects from carbon pricing.

All fine and dandy...but IMO you dont start making such changes in a recovering economy. It will only make said recovery take even longer.

Things will get better eventually, and likely even as good as things were about 6 years ago. Thats when you start to implement such massive overhauls of this magnitude.
