    Maybe first put a carbon tax on fuels used in aviation? LOL

    Petrol is reasonable, depending on how it is rolled out. The heating should be fixed by the state and the EU, not taxed. Like heating networks and heat pumps.

    Why start with heating, which is absolutely essential?? This is pure evil. Many people can barely afford to keep their homes warm over the winter.
