Carbon tax and dividend is greatest tax in human history. Not meant to raise discretionary revenue. Not a pension scam subject to bankruptcy or payment reductions in future. Car rebates is not good policy, because its not car ownership that affects emissions, it is miles driven. Or lifestyle choices that don't need cars/long driving.

The rise in diesel/home heating fuel was a direct result of Ukraine war. Carbon tax is divisive because all the parties love the war on Russia, and so no one addresses/d the real reason for the cost of living hikes.

Has a LVT ever been implemented?

Lmao NOPE but that won't stop the Georgists

There have been some partial implementations though but I don't think they're notable enough to provide meaningful evidence.
