‘They’ want a docile, immobile, ignorant, unarmed and unsuspecting populace.
I want ‘Them’ gone.................
The Gasoline tax is one of the few that actully gets spent on what it was supposed to pay for... ROADS so the freeloaders using non tax fuel on the ROADS will be required at some point to pay too. Sadly in all likelihood the new tax will be on everyone so we that use cars that do use gasoline will be taxed twice. (diesel’s too)
Unfortunately, our road and highway deterioration will accelerate due to the increase in mileage traveled by electric or hybrid vehicles. Right now, if you don’t want to pay the gas tax, you can stay at home and not drive. The gas tax is more or less a user fee, much like tolls. If you don’t want to pay it, don’t use it. But with transferance of costs, the real costs will be hidden, and all of us will subsidize the costs of those few who want to drive on our roadways.
