Your premise is flawed the only reason it falls under the principles of inelastic demand is because of the way our country is structured for cars, if you use the tax to make systemic changes, making public transit and walking/biking possible this is no longer true.

I'm not saying it's an easy transition but it is a necessary one and Norway and Denmark proves it's possible
