Here in WI they are high enough already as well.

Just this past year they made snowmobilers pay not only the normal registration fee but also a yearly fee for trail use as well.  Am sure ATVs and other personal toys will soon be coming in the next few years or so.  And just think the snowmobile trails have only been open about 1 week so far this entire winter and usually only open for 2-4 weeks tops is all per winter season due to lack of snow.  Pretty pricey for not much snowmobile use per year.

Correct me if I am wrong!  But I always felt that Snyder was a real scum bag, telling people he is a Nerd, What a Jerk.  We have a gas tax on every gallon we buy, which was for paying for our roads, Not sure who changed that, maybe Grandholm did. But they switched the money for the roads, to go to education fund. So what they did is stay silent till the roads and bridges started falling apart and then cry for New Road Tax. Rule of Thumb: "If you are living beyond your means then quite spending the money on crap and things you don't need".  If the people in Lansing would do what they are paid to do, there may be more revenue. They don't care it is other peoples money and they spend it like drunken sailors. Feel free to correct me!!

Government of all persuasions and sizes like to spend your money.

Use the vote as your power to change.

I'm going to do 2 of my bikes in the morning. I'm not a fan of Snyder either. I think he is a snake and should be indicted  for his involvement in the Flint Water Crisis. They've blamed everyone but him and they will never convince me that he didn't know!

From what I seen on TV News they proved he knew, but of course you have to consider the media's credibility. I never voted for him, anyone campaigning with the pretense that he is a Nerd, has got to be an A-hole.  Telling people that you are a nerd, is like a white guy going into a black bar and bragging that he just joined the kkk.

I was just watching the News, and they said next week in 2017 they will increase the gas tax per gallon to support then road work.  Don't quote me but they may have said, 7 cents per gallon, not sure.
