I would prefer that tax disincentives existed in the form of excise taxes on things the government doesn't want consumed. Instead of offering EV tax credits, why not offer 0% tax on EVs and 200% tax on ice? Let's get rid of this nonsense 16A and go back to the correct form of federal taxation: excise and/or apportioned if you need a non consumption based tax.
