In Reply to: A clear piss-poor excuse to tax everyone more posted by Victor Khomenko on January 3, 2023 at 04:48:34:
People want infrastructure spending. They want new roads, etc., and that stuff isn't free.
Fuel taxes are a dead end, because of EVs and because your neighbor who commutes to work and back in a full size pickup truck will go apeshit over higher gas prices that result from raising the fuel tax.
You can't tax booze, cigarettes, and/or gambling enough to pay for transportation, and the US has the highest building costs per mile in the world.
You know where I stand on this issue, Victor. My preference is that government looked for ways to get people out of their cars and into public transit. But I'm in the minority.
The blissful counterstroke-a considerable new message.
