Maybe not the best news, but how else are we going to pay for the needed repairs/upgrades?

You might as well get used to bending over and grabbing your ankles. Let's **** tax everything because the federal government over spends $40 billion dollars. Let's screw the people. It's **** ridiculous.

Didn't we just increase it a few years ago for road repairs? Why is it when the gov't needs money they don't cut areas? They just find more ways to increase spending. I guess it doesn't effect the people who don't work or pay taxes.

Dayton has been pushing for this a couple years. I'm all for it. I like driving good roads without gridlock. I can afford the extra $2 when filling up.

Farmers will also be exempt, as always. They need our helping hand to make it.
