Raising gas taxes to pay for infastructure, don't even think about it. There's not an easier way to go door ass out after 1 term than higher gas and oil prices.

    Don't be so fiscally reckless. Pay as you go. If the money goes towards infrastructure then it's not a bad idea.

    Don’t worry obk. It wouldn’t pass anyway. Did you see what happened to trump’s immigration plan? No one respects him, or is scared of him. Infrastructure is DOA. The trump Agenda is DOA.

    Nobody is going to pass a new gas tax and take heat from their constituents for Trump's infrastructure plan.

    Republicans won't because their supporters are obk types who will lash out at any new taxes. Democrats won't because Trump.

    Using a transportation tax to pay for the upkeep of transportation infrastructure is absolutely INSANE
    Like we do it in Washington state?

    This is trump 2018. Nothing will pass. We should shut the whole worthless enterprise down. Drain the swamp!

    States are supposed to govern themselves anyway under a strict reading of the constitution.

    If you want more taxes, maybe Europe is more your speed.

    Frankly we should privatize all roads. You use it, you pay for it. I fucking LOVE 520 toll and 405 'special use' lanes. Pay to use.

    Got way fucking Tired of sitting in fucking traffic with poor free loaders. I pay now and cruise right on by now baby. Should be that way every fucking place.

    I don't want to fucking subsidize roads for people like Salemkewg. Fuck that. Liberty and free markets bitches. Nothing else.
    Fuck that shit. I'm finished with the excuses that we need more taxes to pay for this garbage. We're taxed on everything and anything under the sun. Instead, trim the bureaucracy. Give it a big haircut. Cut the wages and pensions of bureaucrats, politicians and government employees to pay for infastructure, or fuck it.

    Auctioning assets is also something Trump threw out as another option. CNNMSNBCABCCBSNBC didn’t want to hear that.

    They only talk tax increase.

    Fine. THAT, and privatize the ever loving shit outta this bitch. Listen to me!! Do that and watch 99% of our problems go right out the fucking window. It'll be messy and awkward for a bit while we clean out the riff raff, but in the end it'll be best.

    Let's not raise the military budget by $80B and use the money for roads instead.

    Christ. Toll roads and bridges are fine here and there, but have it little gratitude will ya. It was BIG GUVMINT that built the infrastructure that made this country the most prosperous in human history. Private enterprise could never have achieved this because the risk was to great or not enough ROI in the short term.
