I think you are being downvoted for the "well actually" first paragraph.
Also, the point of these specific types of regressive taxes is to change behaviour ... e.g. back to trains from cross state/country trucking
- giantg2 3y agoI was just pointing out that we need to understand the rule to effectively and intelligently apply it. Usually you want progressive taxation - where the burden falls on those with more money. Regressive taxation doesn't mean changing behavior back, but rather where the burden of the tax falls.
