Yeah, that has zero chance of ever working. Its completely unrealistic, furthermore I’d argue that its a pro-fascist stance simply because by virtue of imposing those kind of restrictions on people and commerce will very likely lead to fascists taking power. I can easily see that happening.

I already said this in another post, but international trade of goods is perfectly fine. in this case there is already a line which is underused, at 20% usage.

For example in this case, the only way to achieve this is either 1) faster rail alternative that’s better than transporting via trucks (which you very explicitly do not want) or 2) state force via taxes on trucks/roads/fuel.
The moment you do the second options fascists, nazis, white supremacists and the rest of the filth will undoubtedly surge in the polls.
We’ve seen what happened with just a immigrant crisis.
This kind of move will not only cartoonishly fail to achieve any of its goals but it’ll put fascists in power.

This is a huge luxury and people need to get rid of the idea that traveling far is a given. No, it’s not. Not any more. It was, with the profusion of energy, but now it’s not any more.

This won’t happen, climate change is not the type of thing where people notice its effects relatively immediately. And for that reason they’re not going to vote for the ones who wish to install draconian measures and greatly hamper the economy and all that suffering that comes with that.
