President Reagan believed the gas tax was a true user fee – - TopicsExpress



          

President Reagan believed the gas tax was a true user fee – those who use the road pay for the road. But in today’s world of diverting gasoline taxes to transit and those who aren’t road users, the pay-as-you-go and user fee principles have been all but abandoned. The ‘bait-and-switch’ maneuver in the Blumenauer bill is the push for a vehicle miles traveled (VMT) tax by 2024, when HR 3636 would expire. Invoking Reagan to achieve this back-handed move is, at a minimum, deceitful.
