If a luxury tax was levied on your vehicle, would you pay it to keep driving?

Let’s say the US government decided to implement a movement to make 90% of US metropolitan areas mass and public transit (we know they will never spend that kind of money, but indulge me), to help offset the cost of this, they decided to levy all vehicles that can’t be qualified as a work vehicle with, for instance, a $600 luxury tax, would you pay it? If you were self-employed and your vehicle was used as part of your business, such as your truck used for gardening, plumbing, roofing, or your van used for floral delivery, etc. it would be just the usual registration with no luxury tax on it.
