Original Note:
Carbon Taxes as implemented in Western Economies are a Regressive taxation structure. As such, they disproportionately affect the poor and working class compared to the wealthy. Taxing the poor to make them poorer to save the poor from being poorer requires substantiation. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regressive_tax
