I just caught word of a 2 cent gas tax hike on the already 3 cent gas tax. They are doing it for road repairs, which are much needed in this damn town. I would like to take a moment and blame the tards who bike everyplace. Because they are paying ZERO (assuming a bike is their soul means of transportation) road taxes but they are using the same roads. I say we charge extra for bike repair kits, tires, and bikes or make a manditory registration/taxation process for bikes and use the income to maintain roads and bike trails. Oh and their bikepaths I pay for those too with my gas taxes.

I am ok with college students who cannot afford cars or parking.

I'm already paying into all kinds of goverment funded things for poor people who are too fat and lazy to get off their asses and get a real job and who raise kids who have to be put in any number of special programs because of learning difficultys and/or behavioral problems.

Why must I pay for bike paths that I don't use. I'm upset by the fact that the biking populous of this hippie damn town gets a free ride of the gas taxes I pay for. I bet the increased gas tax will just make more people who would be driving their VW minibus' around ride their bikes even more thus causing another hike in the damn tax.

I have come up with a solution. Buy gas in surrounding citys, Glenwood, Springfield, Loraine (if they have a gas station), Creswell, etc.
