Public transit isn’t feasible is many rural areas. I know you don’t like it, but that’s reality. Sending a bus 20 miles down a road in the hopes that one of 4 people on it want to ride on the bus just doesn’t make sense.

Super true. I am disappointed bus systems have not started an on-demand system. Uber/Lyft showed what an app could do for transportation. Add physical call buttons at stops, or something, for those without mobile phones.
I would ride the bus more if it went where I need to go.
That wouldn’t work in the vast majority of the US, which is very spread out.

Great, but punishing everyone who doesn’t live in a metro by taxing personal vehicles out of existence would be assinine.

The quote was “tax the fuck out of personal vehicles”. It doesn’t say non-electric personal vehicles.
Original commenter here:
We need the vast majority of personal vehicles to be phased out, please.
Obviously, electric vehicles are a stop-gap, but they’re also part of the problem.
Land doesn’t ride in cars, people do.
