Yes, people drive to work so if gas tax went up a few cents everyone would pay that. But the guy driving a car that gets good gas mileage, like a Prius, feels that less than the guy driving a 7 series. Do you think the guy driving the Prius makes more than the guy in the BMW? You guys normally cheer government pressure to move to greener ways. But this time it could be Trump and the GOP doing it, so its bad.
You ignore the marginal utility of money.
