We already have a perfectly fine way to fund highway and road projects.
It’s called the gas and diesel tax. The various government taxes on a gallon of fuel are large enough that that they make more revenue on a gallon of gas than the oil companies make profits.
These tax revenues were intended for road expansion and upkeep projects but they have been diverted by politicians and placed in the generals funds to be wasted and squandered like the rest of our tax dollars.
Now that the fuel tax highway funds have been effectively stolen by politicians , they want more taxes to fund highway projects
Correct. The tax raises more than enough for actual roads.
