They weren't vandals, they were junior activists in training. It's a public school so it belongs toRead More them and they are entitled to express themselves in any way they see fit. ;-)

No, all taxes are not for a specific purpose... a tax could, say, deposit monies in the generalRead More fund, to be used for various discretionary actions. Again, I think that we've arranged to price gasoline below its real cost (e.g., those aircraft carriers protecting foreign oil shipping aren't free, and the effects of air pollution are spread out in many areas), so I'm happy to see the state increase the tax, and would recommend that it happen on the federal level as well. We could then spend some of the new revenue on mass transit, to lessen the impact of the taxes on the poor.

they're wasting the money tax revenue they get now - what's the point in handing them more....?Read More '..I have no strong opinions as to what to spend those revenues on...' the gas tax is specifically for road maintenance....all taxes are for a specific purpose, not just to hand the government money money.

I think we ought to *increase* the gas tax, in order to price fossil fuels more toward their trueRead More cost to society. I have no strong opinions as to what to spend those revenues on, though investments in education and infrastructure are always advisable.

Like many folks in Albany, I have a prior commitment, volunteering at the APAL Bicycle Rodeo. If IRead More have time between the end of the Rodeo and when I have to go to work, I will come and show my support. Either way, I will pass the info on to some of my friends and neighbors and hope you will do the same.

Great Neo, I will see you there. OTF will keep coming back unless we can show by our physicalRead More presence that they are not welcome here.
