"I don't see a problem with the person who uses the roads paying for the roads. "

We already do, it's in the tax on gasoline. Are they gonna drop that? Don't hold your breath! And what about toll roads, especially toll roads on roads that have already been built and paid for?

Answer me this. Why should I pay a road tax on my gasoline I purchase to mow my property?

It has nothing to do with who uses the roads ,the govt collects less tax when people start to conserve .When these hybrid vehicles gain more popularity they will collect even less .Its the same old game the govt tells you to conserve to save then when you do they pick your pocket somewhere else
