Actually that's what he's working on doing right now. He's also trying to get a law passed that requires all of us to install GPS systems on our cars so that we can be taxed for every mile we drive.

He's still trying to push it through. If they do then I'm going to stop paying property taxes and tell him to take a hike. That will mean I'm paying for the road system twice.

unfortunately some people do have to drive 500 miles a week to earn a living, and its usually the people who make the least amont of money out there, if hes gonna tax that thats BS, cause then they wont be able to pay that and then theyl get them yomama dollars to help them out which would be takes from people who worked hard to get on top and got good jobs

Yor right Doc, I'm sure that is where we are headed. And having just got back from Alaska let me also say that I don't believe "global warming" is gonna take us down any time soon as it is still damn cold up in that part of the world at the start of summer.
