I know it is a meme, but thankfully Illinois politicians never miss a chance to collect more money. They have already passed a tax on electrical vehicles ($100 per year) to make up for this lose of money. The original tax was going to be $1,000 per year, but it was defeated and changed to the $100.
Pennsylvania’s Governor Gopher is already working on an annual “mileage tax” on vehicles. Not sure they figured out how to get taxes to make up for people just passing through, truck traffic etc. They are certain to come up with more goofiness.

I pulled into the crowded parking lot at the local shopping center and rolled
down the car windows to make sure my Labrador Retriever Pup had fresh air.
She was stretched full-out on the back seat and I wanted to impress upon her that she must remain there.
I walked to the curb backward, pointing my finger at the car and saying emphatically,
"Now you stay. Do you hear me?"
"Stay! Stay!"
The driver of a nearby car, a pretty young BLONDE lady,
gave me a strange look and said, "Why don't you just put it in 'Park'?"

Well chim they got their stones handed to them on the tolls they wanted to put on the bridges here on the west side of the state. They figured they would rape us that travel the interstate s well as those passing through. Dont worry Im sure they will figure out some other way to rape us
Rhode Island is already putting up tolls on all the major highways, as they keep building new highways with the money. It will probably be like all those bridges and tunnels that were built in the 20s and 30s, where they said the tolls would go away after they were paid for the construction. I have never seen a politician that didn't like a tax on other people, but would almost always write the laws exempting themselves from it.

If you have a problem paying road tax, then quit buying cars and trucks. You can't build highways for free, you know.
Well yo dont live inthe keystone, better know as the land of potholes,,, there is so much graft in this state you wouldnt believe, there isnt a highway construction company that doesnt have an elected figures finger in the pie some place. And I like everyone else, doesnt mind paying the taxes IF the money goes where it is suppose to, sadly that doesnt happen, and people keep voting the same people back in. When the new governor took office, the first thing he did was raise the gas tax to the highest inthe country. SO they could fix the bridges and roads,,, it aint happend yet for the most part
I have no problem paying road taxes, but when the original legislation that was passed to use the Federal Excise taxes to pay for highways was diverted from highways to mass transit. President Richard M. Nixon signed the Federal-Aid Highway Act of 1973 leading to its demise, and it continues till this day supporting mass transit instead of highways.
I live in Chanceford Township, York County, Pennsylvania. Read this article from 4 years ago. Some of these washed out bridges haven't been touched yet. The small village of Lucky, mentioned in the article, has both of its roads closed forcing the residents to travel miles to get around the closures. If this kind of damage would have been in Philadelphia, it would have been repaired the next day, but our few votes don't matter. With the highest gas taxes, do you think these people enjoy burning more fuel for the wonderful service they get?

Just a reminder, this is the daily chuckle thread. I would hate to see it get locked and makes me regret replying to the posted meme. I come to this thread for a good laugh.

That reminds me of the time a waitress gave me the senior discount without even asking. That day, I became old.
