8. Then it shouldn't be based on the car, but on net worth.
You an drive a Lambo making $250k a year. You can drive a Buick and make $2 million a year. That Buick driver can afford to pay more. No, really. Why not do away with all fees and costs for everything, and adopt an income tax type of thing. Sales tax? Based on your worth. Property tax? Based on your worth. Fed tax on that landline phone service? I don't know, let's look at your stock portfolio and figure it out.

Tax the rich. Who cares where they live.
