While "technically true" it's naive to assume the law will be implemented the way you imagine.

Government raises taxes on gas. "OMG the companies are charging more for their products!"

Government makes it harder to meet emission standards for small trucks. "OMG companies aren't making small trucks anymore!"

You have to assume that companies will act as petulant children. They will almost always exercise malicious compliance.
