    If consumption is low, then the tax is proportionately low. We should prob not have tax on basic foods & critical meds.

    @ponder68 Carbon produced by a @SpaceX rocket flight is roughly equal to one 747 flight. No, we should not be exempt.

    Net of gas savings, a Tesla is $550 to $600/month with down payment taken care of by tax credits. Maybe less costly then it first seems.

    Yes, am arguing against subsidies and in favor of a tax on the end bad created. Market will then achieve best solution.

    Trees are net consumers of CO2, so technically we would pay them money :)

    Exactly. Seems crazy to risk the CO2 chemical experiment when we have to find another solution anyway.

    Big difference between taxing people and taxing purchases (ie consumption). Much better to emphasize the latter.

    @MaxMBerger The collective wisdom of the market is usually (not always) better than the smartest govt regulator.

    Me & other private money funded Tesla for first 7 years, got IPO+ govt money for 3, now paid back. Yes, carbon tax would be a better way.

    @grayj_ There should be a constitutional amendment to redo the tax code every ten years, just like we do a census.

    Weight of scientific evidence. Taxes don't ban a purchase, they just increase cost. Am against bans, except in extreme cases.

    Exactly. Better to tax known bad thing and incent desired outcome, instead of subsidizing particular solution paths. Let market decide.

    @VarunG_ Belief in climate change isn't necessary. Even a small probability of a severe outcome justifies a carbon tax.
