To: Tolerance Sucks Rocks

Well, I guess petrol taxation is just part of the general fund now.

Imagine that, $0.55 cents on every gallon of gas sold, just isn’t enough. And about $0.65 cents on every gallon of deisil doesn’t help get the job done.

Now we get to pay for using the roads we’ve already paid for.

How did our forefathers pay for highways? Did they force tolls on every foot of the highways they built?

We have turned into a fine buch of spineless lemings haven’t we.

For every mile of toll road you drive you should be able to send a statement to the government for a refund on your fuel taxes. I’m all for capitalism, but isn’t infrastructure one of the few things enumerated in the constitution that the government is actually supposed to take care of?
