15 idiots from congress

So, congress wants to make up for our driving habits. Seems our cutting back on driving has caused a fund shortage for our road repairs, and building. They want to raise the federal tax by up to 50%. They're urging states to raise their rates too. I don't know if you've looked at how much you pay per gallon before, but in states like Utah and New York, in fact, most other states that I've paid attention to it in, you're paying around 50 cents a gallon for state, city and federal taxes on your gas. To top it all, in a weakened economy these people are wanting to not only increase this tax, but to tie it to inflation, so as we start paying more for everthing else, we start paying more for it too!

How about this.

We stop paying congress so much money, we give them what they Really need to live for a year and make them come up with the rest on their own, it's not like they're working all day every day, they hardly even meet for half a year in two years time. That was based off info from a political science course I took.

You want to come up with money in hard times? Take it from the people who have more than they Need. Don't take it from those supporting your industries and economy.

15 idiots.

I vote we don't vote for them next time.
