Rural Senators Propose Tax Increases for Urban Counties

[B' Spokes: I find this rather humorous as rural residents need more road miles per person them urban dwellers so they should be taxed at a higher rate to support their expensive road addiction. I will also note that I could summarize our transportation "problems" as how to handle all that rural traffic trying to come and go from urban areas. So shouldn't those causing the problems be taxed at a higher rate? The problem with sprawl is people move out from urban centers to get cheaper homes but then pay more in transportation costs, and then complain about that expense, sorry you can't have cheep across the board. So all this is about is complaining how expensive it is to use a car in rural Maryland and all we are trying to do is give everyone more affordable options and reduce the number of cars clogging our roadways, which should be supported by everyone. ]
