BTW, its OK to be partisan, Merc. We all know you are, anyway. You protest too much.  |
Your state increase in Tax would help your state. A federal tax would only go to the Interstate. It would do little to repair the nations ailing roads and bridges, most of which are state owned and maintained.
I am more anti-partisan which includes the current party in power.
