Yes, she did.

OK so that’s what you meant by “leading into”. TIL. Thanks.

Oh yes, sorry that wasn’t clear. I’ve been talking about it for so long (even before the Gillard Government, I remember a fixed-price introductory period leading to a cap and trade scheme being what was described in my highschool econ classes as the best method for reducing emissions) I may have gotten lazy about explaining the terminology that’s become so familiar to me.

Nah, that’s fine. Most people don’t want to know the details because they just want to be right about their entrenched view. The few serious ones will politely engage, and you then explained.
Maybe it is better in this sub but on Reddit it was usually ugly. Yay Lemmy!
