There seems to be some confusion. Wealthy people typically have a larger carbon footprint than those who aren't well off. Think flights, buying a car more frequently, etc. If everyone has the same carbon footprint, the tax is strictly neutral. If people have different footprints, money flows from polluters to non-polluters.
