Some things you just have to take on trust like those “x-ray glasses” sold on the back of old comic books. Soon as you put them on you were able to see through the scam worked on you.
In the same way soon as this tax is added on we’ll realize the “windfall profits” was for the government and for the “soothing” we’ll just have to take a long walk since we won’t be able to drive anymore.
