[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In this thread: many suburbanite bridge and tunnel people who don't go to DC anyway. Hint: We are tired of subsidizing your car use. Get over it and cry more people. lol.[/quote] Pfft. Drivers pay for everything. We finance roads in this country through a combination of taxes and fees. Drivers pay the gas tax. They pay outrageous registration and inspection and tag fees to the city. They pay laughably expensive traffic citations. Both DC and the feds have a highly progressive tax system, which means rich people pay nearly all the taxes. You think your surgeon doesn't drive a car? If you're a bike riding car hater who makes low six figures (or less), you're the freeloader here. [/quote] It cost me several thousand dollars to register my car. [/quote]
