Stupid proposal. It can't be easily and fairly administered and it smacks of Big Brother. We already have too much government involvement in our day to day lives. The last thing we need is the government sticking it to us for getting to work, to the store or to our vacation get away on time.
Tom makes too much sense for Sacramento. They hate his kind of REBEL LOGIC up there.
If we drive in reverse do we get rebates?
Lest we forget, the influx of tax generation rhetoric is nothing but a budget mask to stifle the outcry from the public stating "QUIT SPENDING SO MUCH!"
That's feasible, for anymore if one "works" in reverse they get rebates!

What an incredibly stupid proposal. Therefore, just watch it become the next "big idea" and then we'll have to work to defeat it. Good grief.

Great men who have not yet risen. Take any 2 and you have an outstanding, articulate presidential ticket for 2008. I'm peeved at all of the Rudy/Dr. Rice talk for 2008.
Only Tom could take a home run pitch and fail to hit it to the grass in front of home plate.
Nowhere does Tom demand that the state start spending the gas tax on building new roads. Nowhere does Tom lament the billions of dollars being spent on five mile stretches of subways to nowhere.
It is nice of Tom to acknowledge what everyone else knows, but why not step up to the plate and demand that the state recognize that mass transit will NEVER EVER meet the needs of southern Californians, when it comes to getting to work, or for that matter, anything else.
We need new highways right now, this very minute, and nobody is even hinting at the idea we're going to build them.
Even the starting lineup on our side can't get it's act together.
McClintock sanity ping.
BTW, it should be noted that this new Transportation Secretary for the state was appointed by Schwarzenegger. No there's something he should get the lead weight medal award for.
Yep. We need new freeways and we need to upgrade existing ones. For the Left, that's a non-starter what with their being in hock to the enviro wackos. Where's our side on the dealing with the crisis in California's aging infrastructure?
It's a laugh a minute out here.!
Well it's only a guess, but I'd say they're probably busy trying to figure out how to facilitate another ten to thirty million visitors from the south to join us on our current disintigrating freeways. First things first you know.
Finally something Arnold & McClintock agree on. Arnold DOES NOT support this proposal.
Pssst !
He's dead, Jim.
Yes, he does always have that "cross-eyed" look about him. Twenty-Two years in the CA legislature. What has he accomplished? What is *his* solution? Oh, right. He wants to do away with MTA entirely in Los Angeles and use those "savings" to expand the 101. Genius?
McClintock bump to the top
