Most SUV's have one fricken' person it them 90% of the time.

So any efficiency gains are just eaten up by big vehicles. People have choices, they have made poor ones, so now carbon taxes try to nudge that in a corrective direction. I'm sorry if you don't like that people making poor choices costs them more. I don't feel too bad about it because their poor choices negatively affect me.
Hey, I genuinely need my massive SUV... Though sometimes it feels like the reason for that might tie back in to the "stupid choices people make"
