Well since idiot voters got rid of the fee schedule based on the vehicle's value, they eventually had to come up with something else to pay for all the roads and bridges that are falling apart. And now here it is. I feel bad for the poor sumbitch who uses his old crappy 1972 Pick up with a 454 as his work truck. I dont feel sorry for those Bellevue bitches riding alone in GMC Yukons yaking on the phone with Fifi on their lap, or those douchbag dildos that own H2's.

Consider this an adjustment for the inflation brought on by the fiscal policies of The Bush Whitehouse. After all, with the dollar in the crapper thanks to the GOP, we essentially still have $30 car tabs, its just that 2008 dollars are worth about half of 1999 dollars and they have to adjust accordingly.

Makes more sense to index it to value. If you can afford a more expensive car you can afford more expensive tabs. The larger engine types are already paying more tax at the pump...

Exactly. AND you are taxed based on how much you're on the road which translates to how much wear and tear YOU put on the roads, bridges, etc.

A Hummer that sits in the garage is better than a sedan that lays down 50K miles in a year from an traffic and or "carbon emission" view. Any additional tax should come at the pump, not via licensing.

It's just easier to hide via licensing. You're p!ssed once a year rather than every time you hit the gas station.........and voters have short memories.

Absolutely, however, Eyeman and his idiot followers schidt-canned that system in favor of what is essentially a flat tax, so that the guy in the beater Datsun B210 praying it gets him to his minimum wage job without blowing a head gasket pays just as much as the twat in Medina driving a Hummer. Before the $30 car tabs I was paying $18 a year for tabs on my heap of pussy repellant; After, I was paying the same as Bill Gates. I cant think of a better example of how a flat taxes and tax cuts shaft the working class.

It only seems like sh!t if you are incapable of simple mathematics.

I mean really, a $2 calculator and a scratch pad could tell you how badly Conservative Policy is screwing you.

Unless you're a billionaire.

Are you a billionaire, Aix? ARE YOU?

That's what I thought.

Now...Go sit the f*ck down, and shut the f*ck up.

Oh, and for the record I'm no Liberal, Im a lefty. Liberals will try to talk it out over tea; I'll throw a grenade into your trench and steal the munitions off of your smoldering carcass. I'll die before I let my country fall into Oligarchy and it's associated social injustices. My children deserve better than to become servants for a ruling elite.

\:\) Have a nice day!

I'm curious - does Washington state have a specific funds account for those taxes? Down here we get shafted because all the taxes go into the General Fund, which means those gas tax dollars for roads/bridges/etc. are also paying for haircuts, lunches, hacky sacks, whatever

Even better, voters here just voted down Prop 91 that would have designated those taxes to a roadways only fund.

What a crock. I have an old 77' Chevy pickup with a 454 that I haul my camper and pull the boat with. I average maybe 1500 miles a year with it. At $400.00 plus to buy tags that would match the fuel cost for it.

Here is a link to your state senator list, just click on the name and then the e-mail link and let them know what you think. http://www1.leg.wa.gov/Senate/Senators/

Here write your senator, and speak up. It will happen, if you don’t. and just remember you have no room to bitch about it if you don’t step up.

Worse is that you wouldn't be able to deduct it from your taxes since the IRS demands that the tax be based upon value.

shut the F@#k up!
Wow I’m hurt. But let me start of with the facts: Dude you’re an economy sized douche bag that couldn’t pull a greasy string out of a cats Ars.
If you’re so concerned you wouldn’t spew the garbage you do! Why don’t you try working of commonsense for once, and not hate and rage fueled by your ignorance to conceive logic. You say that the right has screwed every thing up. Correct? And simple pen paper and calculator can show me this. Correct? Then why are you so blind to see the brunt of the truth. Let me make it clear to you, this is a DEMOCRATIC state. Its run by the left, has been for a long time. So tell me again, who’s screwing whom?

It should hurt to be so stupid. Less of the left sided morons would exist if it did

Another question is how long till they put it on boat motors. That’s an extra chunk of change in its self. From rumors I’ve heard they are using the "it’s also good for environment" tactics to push this through. Again hear say but it wouldn’t surprise me. Jim W
