Sure, as long as you consider externalities like congestion. That would suggest charging for passage through congested areas (the subject of this thread), and subsidizing mass transit in congested areas.

This doesn’t answer the question of who is being scapegoated or who is saving face or from what.

I don't see how you can call them scapegoats and that someone else is "saving face". That implies someone else did something wrong, and they're taking the blame for it, so someone else doesn't look bad. What is that

I think that’s unrealistic. If you want to get rid of the fuel for fires, the best way is prescribed fires. If things get that bad, we’ll just see the regulations around prescribed burns loosened, the way they should be anyways.

I’ve overpaid my tax, they told me about it and IIRC I just got one letter with a check in it, I didn’t need to do anything. I’ve also underpaid and my experience was basically the same (except I had to send a check instead obviously). Edit

Anyone actually involved with decisions managing the bank was not bailed out. The people who were bailed out are depositors. If you want to make this argument, the correct version is that depositors are incentivized to find the bank payin

Yes, it’s quite possible that “democratizing” election forecasts is bad. A public forecast may influence the likelihood of voting while a private forecast would not.

Not all car noise is equal though. I ride a bike regularly along an 8 lane freeway. It’s pretty amazing how hundreds if not thousands of cars go by and it’s mostly a blur of white noise. But every now and then a jackass with a loud exhaust
