To The Daily Sun,
The foundation of the new tax proposed by Representatives Norman Major, John Cloutier, and David Watters is to penalize those New Hampshire citizens who are not buying enough gasoline. Buying more gasoline pays more gas tax towards support of the state's crumbling transportation infrastructure. But to specifically and exclusively target fuel efficient vehicles for new revenue through a so-called road usage fee is twisted governance at its unjust worst.
Please rethink this absurd government enticement to abandon fuel efficiency and have the guts to find the funds through reduction of government waste. Recent examples of such waste are the millions spent to promote casinos, or the hundreds of thousands to come up with a new UNH logo. Very very bad government.
Stop wasting our money and you'll have plenty to fix the roads.
