The time when gasoline tax made sense as a road funding mechanism is past. While some folks might still think it useful to discourage consumption, the link between gallons consumed and road miles/maintenance is increasingly tenuous. As is the revenue. Unfortunately they chose to extend the unfairness by a flat tax that only applies to one type of car and the revenue problem by bumping the increasingly unreliable taxation of gasoline. Though I suspect this is temporary and a more uniform approach will be needed before too long. Hopefully one that is more equitable. I don't mind paying my fair share. The operative word being "fair".
