pizzes me off ! That's On top of having the highest in the nation for car insurance

I figured it will cost me at least an extra $500+ a year

and you know the tax will never go away

and of course it isn't even a dedicated road tax, it has money for the schools and pollution

I'd propose a 1-2% income tax increase dedicated only to the roads for a specific length of time then end it !!!!
This way everyone pays, because everyone uses the roads either directly or indirectly.

Excuse my rambling, but it just pizzes me off.....

i'm pretty sure PA has everyone in the US beat on fuel taxes. we legit are the highest in the country at like .60 now

literally if i drive 30 min into ohio it's .80+ cheaper typically.
