A per-mile highway toll? It's being studied for the Bay Area.

22. Great. Grind down the working man/woman

Just like the A-holes celebrating high gas prices. What the hell has become of the left.

People need to drive to get work done. The more expensive you make it, the more EVERYTHING costs.

Want to control inflation- get gasoline down where it should be, a buck or two a gallon. Want to make everything insanely expensive? Make it cost even MORE for every plumber, electrician, gardener and other WORKING person to go about their business.

My sympathies are with my friends; we're Democrats, sure. And we drive big-ass trucks because we do your plumbing, your roof, your lawn. Government should have as its priority making things as inexpensive and supportive for the WORKING PEOPLE as possible. The people that matter to ME, those of us who sweat, get dirty, build and maintain stuff. We need cheap gas, fast freeways, copious parking, low taxes and to be as much of a priority as anyone cranking out code or marching for social justice.

The Democratic party should be the party of the WORKERS. And the workers often drive trucks and we all live one place and work another.
