Plus paying tolls on roads our fucking taxes paid for.

That I’m actually for, let the people who use these roads pay for them. All the while, I’ll be laughing at them as I bike on through.

except when your government pays full price for it and sells it off to a company for a tiny bit of money so they can make money with tolls

I wish gasoline and diesel was heavily taxed instead of subsidized. Heavy vehicle=more fuel=more road wear.

I guess you'd have to do a rebate/deduction to keep it progressive.
