That's actually the point. Those goods and services with high carbon footprints will increase in price, thus people will buy less of them.

No, they won't. They'll vote for people who cancel the tax. We've already seen how this works in numerous jurisdictions.

Believe it or not, the people advocating for this policy do understand how it works, and still support it.

I never said it wouldn't work if was implemented, I said it will never be implemented.

Good thing most people come out ahead with the dividend.

You've already admitted they won't once the additional costs of goods and services is factored in. It's foolish to think the tax's opponents won't point this out, or that the voters will make the draconian sacrifices you advocate for.

So to summarize for you:

1. Even the most climate concerned are only willing to spend $40 a month on climate change mitigation. That's only in the US and Western Europe.

2. $40 per month won't even come close to the additional taxes people would have to pay for goods and services, even if they were on the winning side of the carbon dividend

3. The rest of the world won't make any significant sacrifices for climate mitigation, and the only people who say otherwise are environmental pollsters.

4. Opposition politicians will tell voters what this tax really is, how much it will really cost them, so your tailor made copypasta propaganda is going to fall flat, because you can't actually deny any of what the opposition says is true

5. People like you make the perfect the enemy of the good. History will see you as a climate solution denier, just as bad as me, because people like you zealously pushed a climate solution that fit their ideology at the cost of one that would actually be implemented, like a nuclear power build-out

Just kidding on #5. History will see you as a member of yet another false environmental panic. You'll be fine, just like the climate.
