Personally don't think this is the right path at all and is going to effect rural, poor and anyone without proper public transit (soooo a ton of people) unfairly. I understand the idea behind it but there are so many better ways to deal with the driving problem they've created.

    You do not get to continue to live in an exurb and commute into the city in the era of climate change, even if you’re poor.

    There's no housing in the city. There's no jobs in the burbs. You've got to fix that problem before you start punishing people for getting priced out of the city. If you pass this tax before fixing that issue like Biden is doing that doesn't move us towards sustainability, it just turns the ratchet.

      Every mile you drive a car is already turning the ratchet. The ratchet is already turning. We really have no time to delay taking any action on climate change.
