    What do think of the Feds idea to hike the gas tax 15 cents/gallon to help maintain the roads?

    I think it is a good idea. People are driving less so amount of gas taxes collected has decreased. The roads still need expensive maintenance. This way the people who use the roads pay for the maintenance.

    According to the rest of the world, our gas is pretty cheap. But think of the effects of this, especially for those that depend upon fuel to propel there work vehicles like cabs and delivery trucks. You will wind up paying for that in higher fees and services provided by same. Can you imagine a $10 dollar delivery fee for your next pizza? They could fix those roads and stuff with the money they want to give to choo choo trains. I bought my new car in July, and it already has 9200 miles on it. No, we are not driving less, but just have more economical cars.
