Guess I wont be putting any stickers on my car!

Heck I thought I moved AWAY from big government (Wisconsin) just to find that NC does it differently.

And we wonder why there is not a big push for alternative fuels.

Watch.... now the state will go after the Hybrid folks! After all they are not using gas for some of the time! Does that mean I need to pay taxes for my electric Golf cart I drive around?

I have already sent out letter to my State representatives about this article.
