Gotta maintain the roads somehow. Vehicle and gas taxes mean that only those using the are paying.
I disagree, mostly due to i pay vehicle registration and tax when I buy it. VA does vehicle property tax, MD does not. How are they surviving?
update: so I just checked Virginia's property tax rates and apparently we are one of the lowest in the country at like .76%. so maybe the vehicle property tax makes up for that since most states are just a bit under 1% at around .9. MD is higher, 1.02%
I think it would help if they called it something else also just to clear it up.
I'm surrounded by multimillion dollar homes and $100,000 cars on the road. Just feel like you're getting fucked left and right all the time.
then exactly that is what needs to go away, not vehicle tax, because this won't fund road maintenance for however many years
