Fighting an increase fuel tax is a worthy cause, especially if the fuel tax is just a means to force them to use less fuel to combat "global warming".
I don't know what their subsidy structure is. Was this done, again, to force farms to go under and consolidate to combat "global warming"?
Regardless, they fought the law and the law conceded.
It`s not about raising the fuel tax. They protest the impending end of a tax exemption for farmers.
