How in the world are we supposed to pay for transportation otherwise? The demand of transportation funds is HUGE in Virginia. I don’t like tax increases either yet I also know funding is required. It doesn’t magically appear out of thin air. I don’t know how those opposed to this funding plan expect the needs to be met. I’m sure they studied a variety of plans and this was the one they believe is the best.

Balance the budget, fire enough government employees to accomplish it, cut cut cut.

Transportation problem solved in Virginia.

What was your idea? More taxes? Please. You can move to Maryland anytime if you want that.

Well that bill isn’t going to do it.

A very small percentage of the total tax increase is actually going to roads.

No more whining NOVA. You wanted this crap sandwich. Savor every last morsel.
