[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m sorry, I support the proposals to make EV drivers pay their fair share for road upkeep. They may not be paying gas taxes, which is how we’ve funded these programs to date, but they are still using and benefiting from the roads and should be doing their part. [/quote]

It's not about road upkeep.

I say that because they are also floating proposals to repeal the gas tax - which is for road upkeep.  https://nypost.com/2026/05/11/us-news/trump-calls-for-suspension-of-federal-gas-tax-i-think-its-a-great-idea/

I think it actually is to punish EV drivers.  Because they are deranged.

The evidence of their derangement is everywhere, like canceling wind power projects already under construction.

In context, this really isn't defensible.  It's weird, and deranged.[/quote]

This.  Not credible to claim it's about road upkeep.  And, Republicans suck on energy policy.  They claimed to be "all of the above" but then actively go out of their way to waste massive amounts of investments by forcing wind and solar projects to be canceled, for no good reason.  Not to mention, creating the oil debacle with their ill-planned war on Iran.[/quote]
