We already pay to drive on public roads. It's called "Fuel taxes".

This is another idiot scheme cooked up by Socialists to force people into behavior they approve of. The proponents of this 'plan' should be dragged into the streets, tarred and feathered, and then run out of town on a rail.

Correct-a-mundo. It's also called Registration fees. We already pay for the roads 20 different ways.

You have to admit, though, it’s refreshing to hear liberals discussing the negative effects taxes can have.
