I doubt you'll pay a per mile tax riding a horse. Try that. They are such wonderful beasts!!

Sounds like a logical approach.

Don't confuse enforcement (and the criminals we have in office) with the strength of the Document... It is the unaltered Constitution and CAN be enforced... it is the weak Imperial Administration that must be changed (indictment would be better, but, let's just settle for removal).

Maybe, it is risky either way. Can't say I have a good answer that would work in this corrupt environment, thats the problem.

hank you, sir. It is my wife's passion, and I love animals so I cannot say o, but old age and hay costs are pressing the issue.

Sad, but true..and don't go look at the Constitution party, they have as many "must be's" than any other party.

Yet...but they will find a way to make you pay for wind and sun, they have been jerking the wind and solar indies for years, trying to find ways to loot them...

Indeed OA, you are correct. The way they repair roads here is bizarre, they chew up the ire sections and fill them in, then that flakes up in the first winter. Or, pour oil on and throw gravel on it. They go cheaper and want more, and since it isn't on the roads, it is everywhere else, people in cubicles, bike lanes and rail for a small group. You hit it right...

No matter what plan they create to pay for the roads the highwaymen in government will squander it on other things and continue to ask for more. Michigan has a new initiative on the next ballot to increase revenues for highway repair and maintenance. I don't remember when there wasn't a problem here that required yet another increase in taxes. Thieves... Of course they keep building more roads even though they can't maintain the existing ones, allow some of the highest load limits for trucks and build the roads out of play dough and grant us the privilege of sitting in traffic jams along side of miles of those orange barrels (the Mi. state tree) for miles while three men work/ run big machines and ten stand around leaning on shovels while "repairing" a few hundred feet at a time. The fines are increased for speeding in these endless zones so they can rob us of more money... It isn't about the roads. It is about revenue and job security for the politicians, road workers and the police.

oh my goodness ... horses are better than boats at
soaking up $$. . I have tried both. . Best To Ya, Chief!!! -- j

The automobile gives you a degree of control of your trip (and your personal environment during that trip) that no transit system can ever match. This is why we must never allow the greens destroy driving (or price it out of reach of most people), as they are now trying hard to do.

Privatizing the system may be the only way to take the ability to do this away from greens (and from their scam and cartel known as urban planning).

Lucky you. Fortunately Intel has not gone down that road...I have to work until I am 72 or die..between health care and horses, I am stuck..

Hmmmm... having been living in Moores Law (and it has worked) it seems that it should be a reverse flow...Maybe this should be turned over to Scotty and Spock...

Really, folks, isn't there a greater issue involving horrible social issues that require our collective wisdom beyond being udderly fixated on udders? While a good pair of udders is useful in certain cases, being a Cash Cow is not Udderly thrilling....

Misty moomories..

It will always be in our mammaries.

It may have to go to pasture. 🐮

This thread is a titular meandering success

Yes. We may have to nip this in the bud.

You guys are really milking this...

What a titillating idea.
