This article talks about charging vehicle owners for the cars they drive/pollution they cause. It is not that much; however, it would raise funds to invest in pollution control technologies. My question then is: is something like this conservative or liberal? This is very much a "personal responsibility" way to deal with a problem, but it also still is a government intervention.
I overall like this kind of policy. I think people should have to pay directly for what they do. This does exactly that, even if they still get to avoid paying the full cost of their actions.
the beauty is in the ambiguity
