I don't see why it's insane to put huge taxes on something that polutes our environment, is dangerous to people around them, causes a lot of noise and other irritations. Pushing more people towards electric and public transportation is only a good thing in my opinion. If you insist on a poluting private car, fine, just pay for it (big time).
