Should Vermont levy a new $250 million "Carbon Tax" on gasoline and heating fuels?

Question Title

* 1. A coalition of 15 progressive groups led by VPIRG, calling itself Energy Independent Vermont, is lobbying the state to levy a $250 million per year Carbon Tax on Vermonters ($35 million the first year). According to the group’s report this would lead to, among other things, a 45¢ to $1.35 tax on every gallon of gasoline.
