. . . . As the New Secretary of Transportation wants to "TAX" drivers "BY THE MILE"

to help pay for the Infrastructure!

Luckily for me, on average I only drive around 60 to 80 miles a week!
Everything is close by!

I doubt this will see the light of day, but if it does, I don't have a problem with paying $5-6 a year to help pay for my state's infrastructure.

The thing about taxes is they always get bigger and never go away.

Where did you get your tax $$ info from?

My NE state added a modest 1.3% "income tax" (on top of taxing everything else possible) that was only to be for a short while to get the stated in the Red, then it went up to 2.3%, then went up to 4%, now over "25" years later, it's goes up to "6.99"%!

Last year the House passed a tax bill that would have created a federal pilot program to test a vehicle miles traveled (VMT) tax. Under the legislation The Treasury Department would impose a fee equal to the total amount collected in gas taxes divided by the miles driven by passenger vehicles. The figure works out to about nine-tenths of a cent per mile using the data from 2019.
