I don’t know where you are from, but usually, taxes are a way to put money for the community and to redistribute it. In France, it happens with our social safety (health, unemployment, allocations) and to help companies (there is a lot to discuss about this specific point, but it is outside of scope).

Within a liberal economy, you don’t want to forbid abruptely, so you increase the price of something polluting to finance a greener economy.

Now, why this does not work is because capitalism is broken and sending us all to death in war and global warming and because we have corruption problems be it in France or the USA or wherever.
