Gas Tax....idiots...not cool!

I was just listening to NPR explain the new brain child of a bi-partison blue ribbon committee.  These yucks need more money to keep our infrastructure from falling apart.  The present gas tax has not been raised in a decade and with inflation and the economy the taxes cannot meet the demand.

So it seems pretty easy to me....raise the tax on gas (we are raising tax on everything else ...why not?)  No that would be too easy.  No they have come up with a scheme that would have people pay taxes on their miliage.  Thus the people using their vehicles more would pay more taxes....doesn't sound that bad...right?  Really, you idiots, that's what the gas tax does now.  What do they think people do with the gas? drink it?  The more gas you buy....the more you have driven.  But no that's too easy  lets complicate things and try to get everybody to report their milage...oh I forgot...they want to put a chip in all cars..to track you...oh yeah that will work.  Are these people from this planet?

Then NPR in their infinite liberal way need to give Obama a quick pat on his back.  They go on to say that the Obama administration rebuked this suggestion.  That not only did they not like the milage issue but they also thought that raising the tax on gas during a recession would be a bad idea.

OK, I am almost in a lather right now......does NPR think we are idiots?  Of course Obama does not want to raise the gas tax.  Think about it.....it's one of the only non progressive taxes we pay.  This along with sales tax is fair for everyone...you use it, you pay....BUT WHOA NELLY it's not Obama's favorite robin hood tax.    This guy wants the "rich"who already pay 70% of all federal  taxes to pay more!  No taxes in a recession????? really Barrack?  this from the man who just signed the largest tax/spending bill ever in US History.

This guy is bad news.  He will ruin the capitalistic state.  In fact, that is what he wants to do.   Mark my words!
