A gas tax won't stop people from buying gas, they'll just get a bit smarter about it. Countries that have high gas taxes function just as well as countries that don't - actually, much better in general.
Nordic countries have an extremely high tax on alcohol, but it does not stop them drinking, nor did their economy collapse; quite the contrary.
Tax money does not disappear... The government pays its bills with it.
Don't pay tax, then live with the problems eternal debt brings.
