In theory, I tend to agree with you. However, in the face of massive budget surpluses, ANY tax increase just annoys the living daylights out of me.

And I totally agree with you there.

The problem is money is needed to deal with some of the road/transportation issues and there is no way all the surplus will be put toward it - not that it would be enough in the long run any how.
