"I see it as the rich consuming the most and in doing so generating the most pollution and finally being made to pay for it. The amount of carbon tax you pay is directly proportional to the amount of fossil fuel you consume so even the rich can avoid it by consuming less or switching to renewables"
I would suggest the "rich", )people that earn more than Dave),would drive a nice new car that has the latest anti pollution gear compared to the 'poor' that drive an EB Falcon spewing out fumes.....and it's fact that the 'poor' smoke more.... and the rich in their new 5 star energy rated homes would surely save compared to those 'poor' people living in 1950's immigrant houses in the outer burbs...
So Dave, I know it's much easier to yap yap what sounds cool, but before you make unitelligent sweeping 'damn those rich people' statements, think a bit....
...and $200,000 a year household income only makes you middle class at best...
