So if it's working and not damaging the ability for paycheck to paycheck people (the majority of folk and more and .ore ppl falling into this category) to eat or keep up, then what is causing this.

Because if anyone can explain this to the masses without coming off as a condescending person, they would likely win a ton of votes.

Reality is, a lot of struggling people have taken their real world experience of trying to survive and have seen that their lives have been negatively affect since the implementation of the carbon tax.
Call me crazy, but it's almost like there have been other things happening in the world since the implementation of the carbon tax in 2019 that might have had an effect.
