“It will affect the women, children and poor worse!”
Remember that the new revenue source being debated is not so that the highways are better maintained and improved but rather to fund urban transportation systems, stuff like buses, light rail, and high-speed rail like the California Miracle.
Those of us in rural areas will be hard hit. But we probably voted 80-90% for Trump, so Biden & the demoncrats won’t care.
Nothing like an out of control mentally ill homosexual who thinks he is a dictator.
This is not who Americans want, nor deserve. We didn't vote for this sh!t or the criminals bringing it. The election was rigged and our overwhelming victory was stolen in plain sight.
The only thing we "deserve" is justice and revenge on the criminals who did it now laughing in our faces while forging our chains.
In principal it’s a good idea. Replace the gas tax with a VMT. Then all the greenies can pay for the electric vehicles.
But the dims will add credits and penalties to the collection system to reward and punish. Then they will jack up gas taxes.
Good the people need it. They like taxes. They had a President that taxed them lightly. They kicked him out and replaced him with a thief. They do not wish to be led by an honest person. Nor will they tolerate it. They want someone as degenerate and perverse as they are.
“Much of the U.S. has a third-rate highway system because — to be frank — that’s all we really want.”
Eisenhower wanted the interstates to be constructed just like the German Autobahns, but the shear number of miles that needed to be constructed made it too cost prohibitive, so to cut costs they used long boring straightaways and reduced the thickness of the roadbeds by more than half.
In Germany they spend the equivalent of 9 million dollars per kilometer in upkeep of the Autobahns. As soon as a crack or other defect is found on the road surface, they immediately send crews out to repair that section. They also have crews that go out that clean the guardrails, signs, etc on a regular basis.
IT WILL NEVER BE A REPLACEMENT !!!
It WILL be in addition to the existing per gallon taxes.
The Biden Administration is actively searching for ways to fund its ambitious $1 trillion infrastructure plan.
So what happened with all the federal gas tax money did it get freezer burn?.
to stay in that fund, into the general fund so it could be spent on their boondoggles!
And we did nothing,No Action jacksons, we/ME just as we will on this!!
BTT
Congress critters threw the federal gas tax money
Indeed into a slush fund they tap into often.
Can you say ‘porkulus’, and WE/I did not even blink! We should have pulled a demonstration like ‘they’ did with Kavanaugh’s hearing. We are too, nice and need to change, at least a little.
The left is way ahead in keeping their wishes known to the legislators to their side and our side! Left is very vocal and we/I just accept all without a peep! Docile, submissive, jmho.
Feeling very exasperated with myself for not letting them know. They have to keep all communication in their files and one day in the future, someone may be curious and look at them. Would show their sensitivity to the constituents.
Think the beginning of my activist days are ahead. Guilty of not informing them of my ‘vision of America.’ Would like to encourage us/anyone who will to start being active and not passive. If not now, when we are in the camps they wish for us?
Would appreciate your thoughts?
Take care........pilgrim
Agree however demonstrations are only allowed by the left note D.C. fences and Army and then how Portland and alike are handled.
The comrades are just getting started.
