Too stupid and liberal by 1000%!! We already tax the rich (top 1% now pay 40% of federal taxes and 50% of state, bottom 55% pay nothing) and what do libturds want most: to tax the rich more as if doing something stupid over and over again will be helpful rather than merely evidence of insanity.
Why are the rich richer today than they were in 1993?
"The gas tax, which predates the development of the Interstate Highway System, has been the traditional source for transportation projects since its inception in the 1930s.
"The tax, which has not been increased since 1993, brings in about $34 billion per year. The federal government typically spends about $50 billion per year on road and transit projects, and transportation advocates have maintained that the larger figure is only enough to maintain the current state of the U.S. infrastructure network.
"The current transportation funding bill, which authorizes the collection of the gas tax at its current rate, is scheduled to expire in May."
