Personally I think they're spending it on extra salt and salting equipment. Is there anywhere we can find how this 'value added tax' is spent?

racer254 Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 The transportation fund is ALWAYS being robbed and used for other expenses. The amount the communities with wheel taxes is raising is going way up. In fiscal 2017, drivers paid $20.7 million in wheel taxes. In the fiscal year that ended this summer, that rose to $62.8 million, or three times as much. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racer254 Posted November 4, 2021 Share Posted November 4, 2021 Just remember the federal government is always having "infrastructure" bills. So where is all this money actually going? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
