Always negotiating. Anyone feel like paying an extra 4 bucks every time you gas up the Camry?

As long as the money goes to roads, sure. It’s better than an income tax.

Any such tax is a mistake.

Nope.

Take it from the welfare of illegal aliens.

Sick of it.

No thanks, Don. We’re not undertaxed. We’re overspent. Find something to cut, if you want more money for roads.

How much Federal Tax is charged now? And exactly how is it spent?? I always thought (silly me) the federal tax went for the repair and general upkeep of federal highways and bridges.

How about pulling our troops out of Syria and using the billions of dollars saved thereby to pay for roads?

Or is occupying another Middle East nation more important than our debt & tax levels?

I'm indifferent. I doubt that I've put more than a hundred miles on my vehicles in the past four months, or over 500 miles in the past year.

I’m fine with use taxes. Income and property taxes, not so much. If you use the roads, you should pay to maintain them.

I haven’t read any of the comments but how many “art of the deal”, “he’s fooling the press”, “he’s laying a trap for the Dems” comments?

He’s a NY liberal in more way then many here like to admit.

I have a better idea; repeal Davis-Bacon. The wages on public works projects are stratospheric.

Terrific. And here in WA the Dem’s (we’re a one party state) are going for a ‘carbon’ tax on gas, heating fuel and I think propane(?)

The FIRST thing Trump should do is audit the highway fund. When and where have funds been diverted outside highway projects? Stop the theft, then MAYBE CONSIDER some sort of tax dedicated solely to roads. Eliminate corruption first.
