Not if you care about externalities, it isn't.
yep, we're failing to price those hidden externalities big time.
Because there are costs that are externalized.
Maybe if they had to pay for the externalities.
thats cool but you should pay the costs of the externalities
Are you claiming externalities are unimportant?
Yes but... the externalities are really expensive, and are going to be paid by somebody. It's a hidden cost
aka we pay their negative externalities? no
Aren't those negative externalities already factored into things like the cost of fuel and liability insurance?
If only there wasn't such a thing as externalized costs...
