re: #220 Political Atheist

Thanks. Gas taxes used to be dedicated to our roads and highways. Then they got stolen (please forgive my frustration and resulting hyperbole) by the general fund and off we went. I like the old system. Gas taxes dedicated to vehicle infrastructure. At least that offers a balance of need and tax rate.

Agreed, although that model will also face increased challenges with improvements to MPG and increases in electric cars.
