Guess this 'lady' thinks she is better than the rest of us... who have to pay her share. Hope she doesn't drive on the roads that she didn't help to pay for. Pure lunacy.

"Guess this 'lady' thinks she is better than the rest of us..."

I very much doubt that.

"who have to pay her share."

Her point is that you don't have to pay it either.

"Hope she doesn't drive on the roads that she didn't help to pay for. "

Income taxes are pooled with other taxes and distributed for various purposes. She is undoubtedly paying other taxes, which do, in part, pay for roads.

"Pure lunacy."

Pure, wonderful rebellion.

she doesn't drive on the roads that she didn't help to pay for.

Lunacy describes those who don't understand that the tax on fuel is what pays for road's. The rats alway's us this line.

Roads are by and large fudned using taxes from gasoline sales.

If she buys gas or pays someone to drive her who buys gas then she's paying for the roads.

More likely that she's tired of seeing her tax dollars sent overseas and used to support illegal aliens here in the U.S.

If you 'voluntarily' decide to pay 'your share' then so be it. But this lady (and every other American) is under no obligation to follow that which can not be proven to be legally binding upon them. To suggest otherwise is to not understand the meaning of freedom.

oh get off your high horse. I am CERTAIN that the FEDEX pilot spent HER money much more wisely than the goobermint would have (wasted) spent it.....

It has always been my understanding that the gasoline tax and auto registration fees cover the largest part of road expenses. Except for Interstate Highways, the local and state govt's handle most road projects and repairs. The Federal Income Tax feeds a bloated bureaucracy and massive entitlement programs. How, in a system where many pay NOTHING, can you say anyone is paying their FAIR SHARE? As long as the gov't confiscates my money to pay someone else to sit on their lazy butt; nothing is fair.

Actually the lunacy is when people are led to believe income taxes not gasoline taxes paid at the pump pay for roads...

What is "pure lunacy" is that June 2 is tax freedom day.

So they dont tax the hell out of gas & charge a ridiculous yearly "licensing fee" for personal vehicles to pay for roads in Tennessee like they do everywhere else?

Apparently, you're paying your "share" voluntarily.

Good for you!

[laotzu]

"the rest of us... who have to pay her share."

The school yard bully makes the rounds each morning to collect other's milk money.

Some easily surrender their dollar, others begrudgingly do so as well. Some stand up & refuse, and risk taking a beating instead.

Would you believe that some victims actually blame those who refuse to pay, rather than finding fault with the school yard bully?

The world is full of sheeple, isn't it?

Your income taxes do not pay for roads. You have state and federal gas taxes that are supposed to pay for the roads.

That dog won't hunt. If she drives she pays Federal gas taxes. If she owns a car, the Feds got a hefty chunk of the retail price of that car.

[Natural Law]

I think I can smell the tea being dumped in the harbor. I hope that she sets a precedent for all of us. Like most I have no objections paying taxes for legitimate government expenditures, but I resent a confiscatory taxation policy to support spending on unnecessary or unconstitutional programs. Maybe, just maybe this will help to make the government live within its means and budget the taxes it does collect for essential functions.
