sorry, but you have no idea what you're talking about. this is an economic puzzle, not a political one. food, clothes, tobacco, gas/petrol and a couple other things have a very unique price structure, in that the demand is pretty much independent of price - you just need so much food or tobacco or gas, no matter what it costs, and you don't have any need for more, no matter how cheap it is.
Hmmm. It seems unfair to slap a huge tax on something if there are *laws* in place requiring people to have and use it. I'm thinking specifically of clothes, since you mentioned them. Is clothing particularly heavily taxed? In the presence of laws against public nudity, that would be roughly equivalent to a "head tax"... Since there are no laws requiring people to use gasoline/petrol, taxing it seems more fair to me - it at least presents people with a choice so they can pay up front (for an EV) or during the vehicle's lifetime (for taxes). Or if they are smart and fortune smiles upon them they can arrange their lives so they don't need cars. Bear
