I totally agree and we have had this discussion before without perhaps resolving it. Here in the UK vehicle ownership is taxed (based on CO2 emissions - that is a seperate debate) and not how much it is used. If you want to tax stuff like CO2 put the cost on fuel and then the emissions are paid for at source. People who run thirsty cars (like me, cough) pay more or switch.

+1 - Whenever a tax is levied it is the end consumer who will pay.
@McCrews - I didn't take it as a left vs. right thing - my statement above about who pays applies evenly.
