How the hell do you know anything about my fair share of the tab, and someone else picking it up?

So tell me - How do you sleep at night after you’ve had as little government involvement as you “can get away with“ ?
Here’s how I do it. I do things like putting it all into perspective for the little world in which I live. That little world includes about 45 miles of public road that I actually drive the WVO car on. Of that 45 miles of public road, we donated $485K (and some change) to the county to have a good chunk of it resurfaced. We called it a “good for business” donation. And it was. Now - I’m also paying all the taxes you like calling me a criminal over with regard to the other gas and diesel burners we own. I do pay the registration on the WVO burner. And actually - I don’t see that much damage to the roads coming from said 300D. But - I guess that is still wrong in your mind. And, I guess it should be. And, I do admit that I will on occasion drive the car on roads that I didn’t make any damn near half a million dollar donation to have repaired, but oh well. I guess I’m just a felon on the run there. But - I do sleep ok at night thanks to my justification of it all.
Sorry. We all can’t be like you.

“Not is is not.” I don’t understand that one. But as far as the designers of my current motor....well they actually did do/design something that made it run on the stuff. Didn’t they ? May not have been their intentions, but I’ll go with the design and run it on whatever I can.

Sorry - but I don’t see pumping oil through a filter as jumping through hoops. As uptight as you appear - I can see how it would to you though. I’m sorry that you are not capable of doing anything that others might find fun, interesting, educational, or even for a good cause, if it requires such effort.

“Why do you want govt involvement?” you asked. I was always taught not to answer a question with a question, but here it is hard not to. So - Do you have any more stupid questions?
When did I say anything about wanting any government involvement? Did you not read any of the Q’s in my posts ? Are you not capable of answering the question about whether you think there will be gvnt involvement....? (I believe I already have an answer to that last one - no.)

If the devil is going to come knocking for payment for my evil way of running my car on WVO - Let him come. I’ll tell him to get in line behind a few others here, to kiss my @$$.

Yes - I’m going to continue to side step the HW taxes when it comes to that 1500 miles a year I probably put on my 300D now. I’m going to continue to drive it on roads that you probably fell I have no right to use. I’m going to continue to be a worthless felon in your eyes. I’m going to continue to justify it all in my head so that I can sleep at night. If you have any issues with this. Take them up with the government. That’s what they’re there for.
If not - get in line.
