The elected public servants are again
talking about tolls and one article on WTNH they say CT is approved
for a federal pilot program on an electronic toll system. I say No!
It is expensive to drive a vehicle, you
have to pay for a license, registration, insurance is required by the
state and taxed. You pay tax when you purchase the vehicle and a
yearly tax on top of that not to mention one of the highest gas taxes
in the country and a federal gas tax and on top of that sales tax.
Don't forget emissions testing and all the repairs and parts we are
taxed on. If they took all that money generated by those taxes and
fees and used it strictly for the roads the roads could be heated in
the winter no salt or sand needed, but no the elected public servants
dump all that money into the general fund and say they have no money
for road care. Yet they have money for a busway to nowhere. Well
how about this idea, lets stop subsidizing mass transportation. Why
should vehicle owners not only have to pay all those outrageous taxes
and fees and then have higher income taxes and sales tax to subsidize
mass transit? The people using it should pay for it 100%.
