Dedicated transportation funding is what we've needed forever. Hacking away at the rest of the budget, and property taxes et al. can still be the long-term goal.The Northern Virginia Conservativehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02337255030768872190noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5839784316887823278.post-41794172873150548412008-07-08T16:34:00.000-04:002008-07-08T16:34:00.000-04:00"I would be in favor of a dedicated gasoline tax t..."I would be in favor of a dedicated gasoline tax to pay for transportation. "<BR/><BR/>You would be in favor of a tax increase?
