Getting punished for being environmentally conscious?

Money talks.  Seems that people are OK with trying to improve the environment......as long as it doesn't take money out of their pockets.  What are your thoughts on this?

    Some people dies for money! This is how bad money is or people are. It's hard to think such insane idea of charging EV owners $1000 a year just because they are not buying gas. Why wouldn't they just charge everyone not owning a combustion engine car the same? If the state wants money for public interests, why not just raise sales tax or property tax, which would be more reasonable than punishing the EV owners.

    Quoted--"Owners of electric vehicles would be even harder hit: the current annual registration fee is $17.50; the new fee would be $1,000, every year.:--hard to believe! EV is more environmentaly friendly than traditional combustion car.
