> Also money is fungible Money is fungible but a tax on a specific thing is not fungible to a 'general increase in taxes', raising tax on gasoline its not the same as raising income tax, because the proportion of tax paid is based on gasoline consumption not income.

It's a protectionist tax to keep up local production just like a tax on imported cars or on foreign owned property is.
