   That is bullshit but anytime you want to end the gas tax and the fees   
   and tolls, not to mention tickets and traps, I'm down for it.   
      
   I don't read bullshit from leftwing nut cases and take it as gospil.   
      
      
   But there is the other matter... we need roads. We don't need a rotting   
   transit system that is nothing more than a homeless shelter.
