Tell that to the people and their customers who will be paying the new 3% business tax. Tell that to the users of tobacco products. Tell that to the property owners who were promised relief. Rick Perry has gone back to being a tax and spend Liberal.

So you now want to raise the gas TAX instead of toll financing?

The article is advocating raising the gas tax instead of using tolls to fund some roads.

Never said that! Perry's pushing these tollroads at the same time he and the Leg. are raising other taxes and creating new ones. I wouldn't be surprised to see the gas tax go up as well.
