Stop trying to pick a fight. I gave reasonably specific information of what I mean by carbon tax in my previous post:
> To be specific, taxing [use of and/or extraction of] fossil fuels.
> To be specific, taxing [use of and/or extraction of] fossil fuels.
I can see now that you were actually looking for me to justify a carbon tax from a policy perspective, not define it. I am not interesting in doing so, hence “evading the question”
You've not explained that part at all. It's like saying "I want a wealth tax" and then when someone asks how it actually works you tell them you tax expensive cars. That's not a wealth tax but a luxury vehicle tax.
