except that this PUNISHED people who get more fuel effecient cars. its like slapping them in the face if you ask me :-) I think it should be the way this kind of tax is SUPPOSED to be. by apportionment. number of people in country who have cars divided into how much money is ACTUALLY needed to support the road infrastructure MINUS fed money grants tolls etc.. and THATS how much every driver pays. THAT would be fair. but it would have to have oversight so it is not like our current federal taxes ie 35%+ of every dime you make. :-( ie WAY more money than they can possibly justify.

ALSO I would gladly JUST pay the "tax" per gallon on the alternative fuels I use as long as I can deduct my COSTS in making this fuel from it. IE I am doing my share to help the environment and reduce our fuel load I should not be punished for this.
