Reply to comment by KrissaKray in Want passenger rail in Manchester? Make your voice heard by PurpleSubtlePlan

No one likes paying taxes, but we live in a society. A VMT almost feels un-American, doesn’t it? It exposes use fees in general for what they really are: a crock of shit. If we subsidize roads, we should subsidize railroads too.

I hear the taxes are non-existent in Somalia if you ever decide you don’t like the benefits of society.

I literally said I understand that some taxation is required. New taxes encourage more unchecked spending. They’ll never go down. They just grab more and more.

Trump cut taxes. Dubya Bush cut taxes. Sununu just eliminated the tax on unearned income in NH. Massachusetts cut taxes over the last 30 years, and fell to the mid-20s in the ranking of states by tax burden. Taxes get cut all the time. What are you talking about?
