Lol. Shoes are sales taxed!Soon you will have a tax added on to shoes because you might walk on the road.
Here in communist NYC, they pull in enough taxes ro literally pave the roads in GOLD, and have funds left over.The irony that everyone is missing with this...
IF they actually DID spend what they should on Roads & Bridges, then Bridges would not be cracking in half, or having large chunks of concrete fall off them. They would not be just "surfacing" roads to extend them for 2 years, they'd be rebuilding them to last 20 more years...
The existing funds collected also have a funny habit of being redirected to other things that are NOT Roads, Bridges and that level of infrastructure and in some places THAT is the norm. Even worse, most places do not and cannot collect to repair their degraded roadways as they have languished for years under "Austerity" which the most conservative whack-a-doodles push.
Ahhh well, Do you have the Serenity to Accept the things you cannot change & the courage to change the thing you can ?
HAHAHAHAHA.. not a SINGLE democratically run city in america has a budget that is not massively in debt with out of control crime and failing businesses; chicago, new york, los angeles, san jose (ok lots in california,, why do you people keep voting for them??)Secretary Pete is gonna fix it out of federal taxes.
Edit: US President Biden is proposing a new 2t Infrastructure bill. US Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg will access a large chunk of that to repair critical transportation infrastructure. Jobs will be created; income taxes will be collected.
Perhaps if you ran the numbers you would see why it is "unfair" and the attempt to impose it failed.I see Texas is levying extra taxes on Ev's to make up for lost gas road tax.
And getting pushback for it being "unfair".
The American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009 had $105.8B for infrastructure not $1T. Of the entire package, tax cuts made up almost $300B. The entire stimulus package was about $800B.Here in communist NYC, they pull in enough taxes ro literally pave the roads in GOLD, and have funds left over.
Where does it go? In political pockets.
Remember the almost Trillon obama gave away to the unions as funding for
"shovel ready jobs"?
That was supposedly to fix infrastructure in 2008. I would bet less than a few hundred million of that was actually used for its intended purpose. And Joey B was the guy they put in charge of that.
They think we are stupid
