[edit] international water?
at first, no matter EEZ or international water, any natural resources retrieved from it should be taxed. we should implement the natural resources consumption tax.
For the sake of long run sustainability of natural resources, can canada take control of that area? At least collect the natural resources consumption tax on the internationl water on behalf of the united nations. Jackzhp 00:26, 22 July 2007 (UTC)
And why do you think that the United Nations should be the recipients of the proceeds of a "natural resource consumption tax?" I would like to know your political views as to why the United Nations. I'm all in favor of some sort of a tax burdon for removing any resources, natural or man-made, I don't care much whether it is or isn't nature. However, I'm not so sure how to tax, or if there was a tax, on how to tax the individuals or organizations behind the removal, and who would the tax proceeds go to? You trying to tackle a virtually impossible problem and your better off letting it go!!!
