I've corrected them over and over and over and kept pointing to the fact that the Federal Highways are paid for by the GAS TAX. You know, the one they want to raise now because people are driving less and driving more fuel efficient cars (you know, like Pres. Obama told us would SAVE us money...the money we will now spend anyway on gas tax)
But every goddamn time that taxes come up...the same people will say over and over and over that income taxes pay for roads.
Well, it's all over the news right now. So can you please STOP with that bullshit.
Please...no more ignorance.

Well I've never said we should pay more taxes.. I've said we need to pay for shit we buy and not borrow.. IE like the tax break congress just handed out to big business. It's a tax cut that isn't paid for which means it will add to the national debt.
Tax CUTS do not equal paying more. It means you were allowed to pay less. I don't believe we should allow any tax cuts until the budget it balanced and we have a surplus.
Anyway I'll say whatever, as long as you agree to stop saying Global Warming isn't real and that you keep using cherry picked stats that have been proven wrong over and over..
