There's a per-mile vehicle tax buried in Biden's infrastructure bill

[HereWeGoAgain]

Nowhere does it say it will replace the gas tax. Gubmint never eliminates a tax.

If they do they come up with a new tax to cover the loss.

More punishment for the poor and working class. If you work for a living, the DemoKKKrats hate you.

/----/ democRATs saw how easy it was to force us to wear masks, stay home from work, and shut down our businesses. They are confident we'll be the perfect sheeple and go along with a mileage tax.

It’s taxation. Not rape.

Its the same difference

 

[excalibur]

Pedo Joe raising taxes on the poor and middle class despite his promise not to.

Biden lied? How do we know? When his lips are moving.

Thanks Captain! As I said, they "should be", imo. That's double taxation. Whereas electric vehicle will not be paying the gas tax only the per mile. Not fair to charge the combustion engines vehicles twice.

They won’t be exempt. The point is to punish people that drive ICE vehicles. And in the end you won’t do anything about it. You’ll roll over and obey like an obedient dog.

It’s not and saying so is unAmerican.

Just like rape its not consensual

I guess some people don't believe in the idea of a Republic. Those people, such as yourself, are unAmerican.

Tell us again how this is going to replace the gas tax.

 

[Mac-7]

I do believe in a republic

but its unjust for some citizens to pay a greater share of their income than other citizens pay

Then why would you consider laws passed by a Republican government to be illegitimate?

It attacks the very foundation of our country. That’s why it’s unAmerican.

I think we need to reform the tax system

Good for you.

Doesn’t excuse you for attempting to delegitimization our way of life.

 

[marvin martian]

you fucking idiot, we ALREADY tax people more for driving more miles. An alternative to the gas tax merely taxes those who don't use GAS

Where does it say this is an alternative to the gas tax?

 

[ThisIsMe]

What fair method of taxing electric vehicle owners for road maintenance do you propose? Gas vehicles should be exempt. imo.

Why does there need to be a tax. With more electric vehicles on the road, that means less money spent to deal with emissions and pollution control. They can use the savings to maintain the roads.

Also, don't put it past our government to start looking at a new tax on your electric bill, or at pay charging stations to replace the fuel taxes they will be losing.

The government never met a tax they didn't like.

 

[ThisIsMe]

Welcome to America. The more you use the roads the more you pay for the upkeep.

Currently, those who drive more already do pay more via the gas tax. Again, don't think for a second that once electric vehicles become the norm that they won't migrate the gas tax to a new electricity tax, on top of the per mile tax they are going to study.

We both know this is a new additional tax. Then there's Biden's DEATH ZOMBIE tax on estates. Don't die under Dem rule or government will take 80% of your estate.

/——/ And don’t forget that California shut off power during the forest fires stranding the EVs. Only ICE we’re able to get around.

Just how much of the 19 cent federal tax do you think goes to emission control?

 

[BlindBoo]

gain, don't think for a second that once electric vehicles become the norm that they won't migrate the gas tax to a new electricity tax, on top of the per mile tax they are going to study.

Electric vehicle should be taxed at about the same rate as the ICE vehicles.
