@MostlyBlindGamer I am definitely not against raising income taxes (92% worked in the past, let's try that again), and reducing how the very rich hide their income. I'm also not against a wealth tax for the billionaires, tho I do think it is really hard to accurately measure wealth without invading privacy. I am one of those people that can't avoid a car. That's the only safe way in or out of the house I'm house-sitting, the state highway doesn't have sidewalks and isn't exactly bike-friendly. Similar for my family house, which also has a 15 minute drive on a US highway to get to a produce section. I also go between those places Fayetteville, AR to Cove, AR not infrequently, and my car can't make that on battery. I know there's a rail line, between the two, but as far as I know, there's no passenger service -- it was discontinued in the 60s. My post already has "carrots" in the form of payments to workers/citizens. But, I also don't think we are going to entirely fund getting off of fossil fuels by only taxing at the consumer level. Ending subsidies and tax-carveouts for the fossil fuel companies are also a funding mentioned in my post, and aren't directly borne by consumers.
